| La
Salle is committed to a liberal education of both general and specialized
studies. It wants its students to liberate themselves from narrow
interests and prejudices and to learn to observe reality with precision,
judge events and opinions critically, think logically, communicate
effectively, and sharpen aesthetic perception. The curriculum involves
a body of knowledge about the universe; about people--their nature,
behavior, and values; about God. It also provides an opportunity to
gain specialized knowledge in one field of learning as a preparation
for graduate study or entry into professional life. Beyond this breadth
and depth of knowledge, the University encourages its students to
seek wisdom; that is, to grasp those basic principles which can give
order to particular facts. |
