    Liberal Education-The Foundation
    (Oakland University, 2007-10-01) Russi, Gary D.; Nixon, Jude V.
    Today, the liberal arts are the foundation of any degree conferred by Oakland University; this is still the bedrock educational principle that guides our mission. An Oakland University graduate may have a degree in electrical engineering, but she will also have critical thinking skills, an appreciation of the fine arts, and the ability to write well, among many other key aptitudes that a well-rounded liberal arts education provides.
