Tóm tắt
The importance of higher education to the future of the nation can hardly be exaggerated. Economic growth and responsible political participation increasingly depend on a well-read and scientifically literate citizenry. Social mobility and higher incomes are closely tied to the acquisition of a college diploma and the communications skills and critical thinking that higher education fosters. And for many, a liberal education introduces students to the many dimensions of their own civilization and to the diversity of human civilizations and enlarges sensibility and understanding.
