Florida Atlantic U. Seeks To Mold a Different Kind of Public Intellectual.
Schneider, Alison
Chronicle of Higher Education, v46 n10 pA18-A20 Oct 29 1999
Describes a new doctoral program in "public intellectualism" at Florida Atlantic University intended for journalists, artists, and activists. Two year-long required courses, "Public Matters," and "Rhetoric and Principle," form the centerpiece of the curriculum. Students then concentrate in one of 13 areas and also participate in a practicum. Critics suggest the program may be light on substance. (DB)
