This volume brings together leading thinkers who offer reflections
on the place of Western civilization in the academy, at a time when
there is indifference or even antipathy toward the study of the
West at most institutions of higher learning. Alternative
narratives-including multiculturalism, diversity, and
sustainability-have come to the fore in the stead of Western
civilization. The present volume is designed to explore the roots,
extent, and long-term consequences of this educational climate: How
and why did undergraduate education turn its back on what was once
an important component of its mission? To what extent has such
change affected the experience of undergraduates and the ability of
colleges to educate citizens of a constitutional republic? What are
the likely individual and social outcomes of such a shift in
educational priorities? The volume's theme is, and will continue to
be, the subject of national scholarly and media attention.
