Pre-listening DiscussionWhat do you think

education is for?

The purpose of education is to diffuse knowledge and civilize

people, just as the writer of Another School Year---What For? Pointed out: “The business of the college is not only to train you but to put you in touch with what the best human minds have thought. If you have no time for Shakespeare, for a basiclook at philosophy, for the fine arts, for that lesson of man’s development we call history---then you have no business being

in college. You are on the way to being the mechanized savage,the push-button savage.”
