More about the Topic: As we have seen, the long-standing debate about the primary purpose of education draws our attention to important questions about what we value in an education and how those values can sometimes be at odds with what we hope to “get” from our degrees. Consider: how do economic and political goals shape the purpose of higher education? In what ways has higher education—a system that is uniquely situated within the complex social fabric—repurposedthose goals or bent towards them? How is success determined and what are the personal and educational ramifications of those standards? The overarching benefits? Make an argument that takes a position on what set of values should fuel our educational structures and goals and why?
