Abstract | To cultivate humanity is to invest in, enrich, or elevate all that it is to be human. But cultivating humanity has become a pressing challenge in higher education because learning about what it means to be human depends on significant and ongoing personal engagement of students with faculty and staff who serve as mentors, advisors, and guides. Such engagement is as expensive as it is essential; time and people are money. It should not be true that there is enough time and enough faculty and staff to cultivate humanity only in colleges and universities that have a lot of money. What students most need, and what cultivating humanity most requires, is the hardest thing for institutions of higher education to provide, and for observers and stakeholders of colleges and universities to understand and support. But what students learn about themselves, others, and the world around them is as important to their future success as getting the degree. Character, empathy, and moral principles make the graduate a whole person, not just an individual with a credential. Colleges and universities must settle for nothing less. (As Provided). |
