Humanities and Sciences Go Together... Like Bow Ties and Jackets ~ Mitch Stokes
One of the critical issues of our time is the disconnect between the humanities and sciences in both secondary schools and in higher education. Lack of crossover hurts both, says Dr. Mitch Stokes, Senior Fellow of Philosophy at New St. Andrews, engineer, and author. In fact, most people don’t realize that western thought and civilization grew up around people responding to the math and sciences! Dr. Stokes gives practical advice to administrators and teachers from the top down who want to understand and pass on both of these disciplines to students. Sometimes opening your eyes is the first step to realizing what goes together…like bow ties and jackets.
