Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Brown Alumni Monthly, Vol. 95: March, 1995
Finally, the discussion of Hirsch's Cultural Literacy caught my eye, as his books occupy a valued place in my library. I would have dearly enjoyed being in on the discussions described here. Classes such as this represent the best I can expect, and may force me to skew my stereotyping of Brown. A fair and open airing of truly diverse values, rather than a lockstep politically-correct curriculum, should be what Brown offers. It appears there are some glim mers of political diversity at Brown. To my mind, that's good news and a story well worth sharing with us. Thanks!
