Chapel Talk, 2023 May 10: On Liberal Education / Philip Walsh

Classics Department Chair Phil Walsh examines the meaning and philosophy of a "Liberal Education" and the School's "distinctive brand" of it, illustrated by way of a collaborative project with Emma Hunter '25, a "case study of liberal education, a co-curricular exercise of dialogue, creativity, critical thinking and curiosity." The School is a "learning laboratory interested in process and ideas." In practicing the freedom to think, Phil concludes, one can change one's own life.
