"What Every Student Should Know" Charles McGrath

This article points out that not only should the general studies be looked at and not taken lightly. Yes, it is important to have general classes be important such as math and science. But it is also important to have the arts and have humanities. These classes help students more so than you would think as it gives them a way to expand their creativity and find what they are passionate about. Believe it or not most people don't find math and science to be so great that's what they want to do for the rest of their lives. Liberal arts is the one outlet that gives students a chance to expand past just general studies and find themselves in another academic standpoint.
