All human activity whatsover is done for the sake of some end. Why then do we go to college? What end, what telos, should we have in view?So far we have seen that the acquisition of useful knowledge is not the primary goal of a university education. While as a practical matter we must keep in mind our career, no human being is defined entirely by his work. Professional man is not the telos of liberal education. Neither is the amiable, relativist post-modern man, proffered as the goal of diversity-education. We have also seen how this clear perversion of liberal learning follows from the tendencies implicit in the immediately previous pedagogic regime, Mill’s style of education for critical man. We see in any event that to answer our question, Why go to college?, we must answer the question, What sort of human being should we wish to become?What are the real alternatives to professional man, post-modern man, and dogmatically critical man?
