Isn't it ironic?

Isn't it ironic that the guiding principle behind our curriculum is that students should be reflective about their education; yet the one thing we are discouraged from helping them reflect on is the curriculum itself? So, I ask any students who may be reading this:

- What do the four goals of the Gettysburg College curriculum - multiple inquiries, integrative thinking, effective communication, local and global citizenship - mean to you?

- Is this the best way to characterize a quality liberal arts education? If you had to name four (or so) goals of a liberal arts education, what would they be?
