Seneca and His Stance

1. In reading this article, I take that Seneca is perturbed with the way that education has morphed into something invaluable to society. He argues that a Liberal Arts education should be something that frees the spirit and enriches the soul. Education should allow for growth as a person instead of wasting one's time and money. Seneca mentions that he can "deem no study good, which results in money-making." With this, Seneca leaves us with the burning question of the worth of our so-called higher education.
