Exiles from Eden: Religion and the Academic Vocation in America
Schwehn, Mark R. (Professor of Humanities and Dean, Christ College, Professor of Humanities and Dean, Christ College, Valparaiso University)
In this thoughtful and literate study, Schwehn argues that Max Weber and several of his contemporaries led higher education astray by stressing research - the making and transmitting of knowledge - at the expense of shaping moral character. Schwehn sees an urgent need for a change in orientation and calls for a 'spiritually grounded education in and for thoughtfulness.' The reforms he endorses would replace individualistic behavior, the 'doing my own work' syndromederived from the Enlightenment, with a communitarian ethic grounded in Judeo-Christian spirituality.
