Please join us for an in-depth presentation and discussion about the recent report,
What Does
Bowdoin Teach? How A Contemporary Liberal Arts College Shapes Students.
Dr. Herbert London, Dr. Peter Wood, Dr. KC Johnson, and Dr. Michael
Poliakoff will discuss how higher education has transformed from strong
intellectual traditions, a core curriculum, and a commitment to Western
Civilization, to a new focus on race, class, gender, and the
environment. Out went the old style of scholarly generalists as
teachers, and in came the new style of research specialists as faculty
members. The new Bowdoin dedicated itself to the achievement of social
justice and to reshaping America in the image of progressive politics.
