The 'liberal arts' and the benefits of a liberal arts college

I love the question "What can a liberal arts college offer my student?”

It’s a great question because parents love the answer: liberal arts colleges provide the learning experiences that produce well-rounded, deeply skilled citizens ready for success in their chosen career while making meaning of life.

What should parents ask colleges about campus food services?

When I went to college in the ’90s, I don’t think “foodie” was a term we used. But, it sure is now. Whether your student is a foodie or not, students deserve good-tasting, wholesome food during their college years.

As your family looks at colleges, I’d like to offer seven questions you will want to ask about dining and food at any school being seriously considered.
