[Web4lib] Major "Student As Scholar" Blog Entries

[McKiernan, Gerard [LIB]]

Colleagues/

 

I'm pleased to inform you of several major additions to the "Student As
Scholar" Blog

[ http://student-as-scholar.blogspot.com/
<http://student-as-scholar.blogspot.com/>  ]

 

The "Student As Scholar" blog is devoted to documenting relevant
literature that supports the view that : "Undergraduate education should
adopt the "Student as Scholar" Model throughout the curriculum, where
scholar is conceived in terms of an attitude, an intellectual posture,
and a frame of mind derived from the best traditions of an engaged
liberal arts education."
