A Liberal Arts Education is NOT Liberal in the slightest. The curriculum mainly consists of classes that were taught in high school as well as the courses pertaining to one's degree. This is common practice for universities in America. The common corporate, greedy agenda used by many college presidents is that these courses will make the student more "well-rounded". The truth is that these classes are required so that the university can make more money through textbooks and extra tuition. The term "Liberal Arts" is also a code-word for "general education".
