What Kind of Education Should You Experience at a University

Abstract

This paper addresses higher education and specifiacllay Universities and their role in the development of moving toward a sustainable and ecologically sound and vibrant society. The premise in this piece is that Universities are caught between two competing visions as to the road that they should travel in this New Century. One is the vision of the global market with its bottom line cost effective market priorities. the second vision is a view that the University should situate itself in the Universe Story and develops priorities that move toward a planetary consciousness width an emphasis on sustainable living.
