The Best Of Our Knowledge #1303

Stop me if you’ve heard this before: A liberal arts education teaches students how to think. OK, I’m not really going to stop but yes, most of us have heard that little nugget more than once. The thing is over the past decade or three we’ve become more interested in the bottom line. Today on the Best Of Our Knowledge, a discussion about the future the liberal arts, in what’s called the neoliberal age.

We’ll also hear how a group of performers are using comedy to teach about disability…and spend an academic minute with your lying liar kids.
