History and Future of Harvard's General Education:Report of the Committee on General Education

  • That undergraduates should receive a broad education in a range of areas has been important to American education for a century or more. In this report, the Committee affirms Harvard's commitment to the ideals of a general education that aims to provide a breadth and variety of study. The Committee reaffirms the goals of a liberal education that aims to develop self and citizen in contrast to studies aimed primarily at the preparation for a specific profession or occupation. This report will give greater depth and meaning to a crucial segment of every Harvard undergraduate's education and provide students with more freedom to follow their own particular interests.
