Why Teach? In Defense of a Real EducationWhy Teach? In Defense of a Real Education

Mark Edmundson's essays reclaim college not as the province of high-priced tuition, career training, and interactive online courses, but as the place where serious people go to broaden their minds and learn to live the rest of their lives.
