Another problem that might surface, Lewis says, is of more immediate concern to students: class size. While new courses are always being developed and new faculty recruited to the Core, getting professors to teach is often difficult.
"It is an attempt to stand back and review whether the Core is accomplishing what it was supposed to do and how well it is doing it," says Lewis.
"These courses aren't designed to teach you about the five most important books ever written," says Lewis. "They are to get you to look and think critically about whatever it is, whether it is a piece of art, a book, a poem, a philosophical question."
Reginald F. Lewis '68, the chair and chief executive officer of TLC Beatrice Group, said LBOs are beneficial because they improve the efficiency of companies that are bought out. He added that such efficiency is essential to maintaining American competiveness.
"Levereged buyouts do make sense," Lewis said, adding later that "it may be disturbing to you, but America is no longer number one in the industrialized world."
