Aims of education
Article Abstract:
Education aims to mold young minds and fill them with knowledge so they can develop into better persons. However, not all college programs offer what is called as 'liberal education,' which aims to equip students with skills that they can use to discover and develop their potentials. It does not feed students information, but teaches them how to assimilate this information and analyze its relevance to their lives. A good education is one that cultivates within students a sense of complexity, proportion, economy and style.
