A Public Conversation on the State of Liberal Arts and Sciences Education

The Liberal Arts and Sciences Collaborative invites OSUN LAS practitioners to a highly interactive public conversation focused on engaging with pressing questions on the state of LAS education globally. LAS Collab has identified six topical concerns for the audience to explore:

• What exactly constitutes LAS education
• The relationship between STEM and LAS education
• How governments view higher education
• The implications of generative AI on LAS education
• Attracting students to LAS education
• Measuring the impact of a LAS degree

During the event, LAS Collab will provide context for each concern, facilitating a range of focused free-write activities followed by breakout room discussions for audience members to share their perspectives and ideas. Led by LAS Collab's Gray Rinehart, the event is an opportunity to collectively explore group thoughts and feelings around the state of LAS education while also surfacing additional questions and concerns that can be examined in future events.
