A Conversation on Liberal Education

Here is an interview with Daniel Clements, Political Science and Philosophy student at Loyola University Maryland. http://blip.tv/file/4402092
Topics are the Seven Liberal Arts; education vs. vocational training; Humanism and humanistic studies; the Jesuits' Ratio Studiorum as heir to the humanist ideals, including cura personalis and cultivation of individual talents; Allan Bloom's The Closing of the American Mind; the connection between poor general education and openness to dictatorship and tyranny.
