12B How Are Innovation and Liberal Arts Education Related?

What is innovation and how does it relate to a liberal arts education?

Innovation is like a process of change or altering things. For example, you innovate a business if you think it in needs to be changed and altered for the businesses sake. Remodeling it or something like that can be an example of innovation. Or look at it like this; if I innovate a topic in class I have changed the subject or showed my opinion of the topic and altered what I think is the meaning of the topic and its strengths. 

Relating innovation and a liber arts education is very simple. A liberal arts education entails for a college students to become more innovated. This type of education provides the student to become more aware of thinking outside the box and to be more interesting because they have explored other areas in order to become more ware of other knowledge other than the one that pertains to their major. Students that come out from college with intrinsic motivation are more likely to be more innovated and think differently and possibly observe more than others who are not intrinsically motivated. Employers hiring and offering jobs are looking for a people that are innovated and know how to think on their feet. Without a liberal arts education it defeats the purpose of going to school unless you want to learn just about you’re major by attending technical schools or boarding schools. Many people may disagree with a liberal arts education, but to be a part of this type of education and leave as an innovated students then you have successfully taken in everything a liberal arts education can provide for you.
