Episode 26 - John Peterson
Manage episode 297836287 series 2854148
This episode is the first in on-going series on classical liberal arts education and the importance that it may play in the contemporary university. In this episode, I speak with John Peterson. John has a PhD from the University of Dallas, where he is the Manager of Interdisciplinary Graduate Programs in the Braniff Graduate School of Liberal Arts. There he oversees the administration of the Humanities, Classical Education, American Studies, and Leadership programs and he is also an Affiliate Assistant Professor of Humanities and Graduate Director of American Studies at the University of Dallas. We explore what is a classical liberal arts education and how it may differ from what falls under the banner of “liberal arts” education today in many universities. We also speak to the role that such an education may play in our contemporary universities as well as the challenges that this pedagogical approach faces from competing pedagogical approaches. Our conversation serves as a terrific introduction to classical liberal arts education pedagogy and is a great launching point for this on-going series.
