Virtue and Liberal Learning with Jennifer Frey

The classical education movement has made great strides towards reconnecting knowledge and virtue in K-12 education. In higher education, however, virtue pedagogy has either been entirely absent, or it has been tied to specific professional or vocational training. In this talk, I will explain the potential I see in higher education by looking at general, liberal education that focuses on the study of classic texts as one of the most promising contexts for virtue pedagogy in young adults, and how it differs from, but is related to, virtue pedagogy in the K-12 grades.
