Humanities in the 21st Century

At the Chronicle's blog Innovations, Peter Wood gleans prophetic hints about higher education from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's Center for 21st Century Studies. He sees the Center as an example of the academic left recycling clichés and passing them off as modern. And John Ellis, president of the California Association of Scholars, argues that we shouldn't save the humanities as they are now are - dominated by radical destructive ideology. Instead we should work to restore the humanities as they ought to be.
