	Liberal arts college - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Liberal arts colleges usually focus on tertiary education leading to a bachelor's degree in a program designed to be completed in four years' worth of study, though some include post-graduate programs.
		Some institutions referred to as "liberal arts colleges" are distinguished from universities not so much by a difference in kind, but a difference in size, taking the form of small universities, complete with subsidiary schools dedicated to a particular specialized course of study and offering a limited set of graduate degrees.

	Choosing a College - Chapter 3
		Because liberal arts colleges are not homogeneous, there is the same urgent need to match the individual to the institution that there is in the case of universities.
		College guides can be very helpful in the search for the right liberal arts college, especially those guides that sketch something of the flavor of each college, rather than simply inundate you with statistics.
		Because some of the smaller liberal arts colleges may not be able to cover all the fields equally well, it is important to be sure that their strengths match your interests.

	The Case for A Liberal Arts Education
		First, liberal arts colleges celebrate and reward outstanding teachers who have a passion for their subjects and are devoted to helping students learn.
		Liberal arts colleges challenge students to write, to debate, to participate actively in small classes and seminars, to conduct independent research, to examine existing theories, tear them apart, and put them back together again.
		Third, a liberal arts college is an ideal place to explore what it means to be a human being, to debate the obligations of citizenship, to learn about democracy and market economics and their alternatives.

	Liberal Arts College (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		A liberal arts college is an institution of higher education found in the United States, usually private, and offering primarily or exclusively a tertiary education leading to a bachelor's degree in a liberal arts program designed to be completed in four years' worth of study.
		Most, though not all liberal arts colleges are funded through private donations and so take a large portion of their operating revenue directly from tuition.
		Private liberal arts colleges are thus often more expensive than an education from a taxpayer-subsidized community college, public university, or land grant university.

	Liberal Learning and the Practice of Freedom
		Liberal arts colleges continue to thrive even though the proportion of students served by them is steadily declining.
		Liberal learning, then, includes a variety of opportunities for the practice of freedom, and the well educated person is one who skillfully and zestfully exercises his formative powers in the pursuit of these various kinds of understanding.
		The arts merit a central role in liberal studies insofar as they are conceived not as occasions for self-exhibition, studied opacity, and calculated freakishness, but as opportunities for the disciplined attainment of qualitative excellence in the form of singular perceptual constructions.

	Liberal Arts College Libraries and the Management of Diversity
		This study addresses diversity in liberal arts college libraries, an important segment and integral part of the academic library community, and perhaps a type of institution where, because smaller settings often facilitate increased personal responsibility, the tenets of diversity can be better defined and the goals more likely to be achieved.
		In short, liberal arts college institutions are facing competing priorities and unprecedented challenges that are both similar and unique to those experienced by larger institutions.
		As the study shows, the presence of a college diversity or affirmative action officer on campus does prove to be significant in correlation to the number of diversity activities, in particular, in the area of professional recruitment and services to student populations from diverse backgrounds.

		Take a look at Wesleyan University in Middletown, CT. It has a pretty good balance between frat members and arts majors (actually, the Greeks consider themselves an underrepresented minority.) And while the city of Middletown may not be as attractive as Northampton, the pizza is better in Connecticut generally, IMO.
		My daughter plays flute and violin and would like to be in a college orchestra, but has no plans of a music career or major.
		We also thought it might be a little too liberal (socially, not necessarily politically) for her.
