FYI 101: First Year Inquiry (Leech) - Special Collections Guide

This guide is for students enrolled in FYI 101 First Year Inquiry with Dr. Leech and is intended to help you continue your research in Special Collections.

 

During your class visit, you encountered a variety of materials that could be used to respond to the claims in the Edmundson article, "On the Uses of a Liberal Arts Education."  You may need to return to Special Collections to revisit some of these materials, or you may need to write a citation for one (or more) of them, in which case you will need to know where they are located in our collections.  The list below is grouped in the same way that the materials were in the classroom:
