from Kolbecast · host Kolbe Academy
AMDG. The pursuit of human flourishing in this life and the next takes a clear understanding of what it means to be human. Today, Dr. George Harne, Executive Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences and Associate Professor at the University of St. Thomas in Houston, joins Bonnie and Steven to discuss the distinctive ins and outs of classical education. Describing a classical curriculum as “more than old dusty books,” Dr. Harne vividly describes the way this kind of education fosters understanding of both personhood and purpose. He also explains how studying organized bodies of knowledge and sequences of learning leads to self-knowledge, critical skills, and wisdom borne from wonder.
