Fine, Q, but a 'liberal arts" college is welcome to offer courses in science, animal husbandry or under-water basket weaving. That does not make those subjects 'liberal arts'. Nice try, though.

Also, all of the journalism majors I have known went into journalism as a profession. History and philosophy are also 'liberal arts'. Claiming that "increasing reason and judgement" are part of liberal arts is downright comical. Almost are weird as claiming the politics is a vehicle intended to promote 'truth'.

B-Dubs: I believe that 'facts' are a sub-set of 'truth', but it is too late to elaborate. Nite all.
