A conversation with Mary Mumbach, a senior member of the college's faculty and Dean emerita, about the urgency of liberal education.  Throughout the conversation she considers the nature of liberal education and teaching while reflecting on her own teachers.  She also considers how the teacher, the curriculum, classic books, and the concept of paideia cohere and are ordered to a transcendent purpose within her vision of liberal education.
