Liberal education may be dead but the magic will not die!
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to challenge the assumption that liberal education as we
understand it today, is alive and well in our institutions of higher education.
Design/methodology/approach – This article is a reflective essay
Findings – The spirit of liberal education is alive and well but has largely fled the university and taken up
residence in less formal, more flexible educational contexts.
Originality/value – This article plays the devil’s advocate and argues that we need to rethink how we
approach and signify ‘‘liberal education.’’
