520 |a Newman's celebrated work, The Idea of a University, offers a number of valuable lessons for those who are interested in the renewal of the contemporary church-related liberal arts college. Three ideas have special appeal: (1) liberal arts education is the principal business of the baccalaureate institution, (2) liberal arts education is intrinsically valuable, and (3) liberal arts education is incomplete without the study of religion. All three of these ideas have been either subordinated or abandoned by many private colleges. In responding to market forces and internal political pressures, the historic liberal arts colleges of the church have lost their way. Reform will not come easily, and when it does, it will be incremental. Green Mountain College offers a useful example of an institution that has taken steps to implement the three ideas associated with Newman's classic work.
