Through Truth to Freedom
Reconciling a University's Past, Present, and Future
About this book
The central claim of this volume is that higher education institutions that seek to educate their students for freedom and liberationāthe idea behind the liberal artsāmust be prepared to embrace the truths they pursue and to lean into the reconciliation demanded by those truths. In other words, they must journey through truth to freedom, but only by way of reconciliation.
For Augsburg University, the truths interrogated delve deep into the heart of its faith tradition, academic mission, and commitment to social justice. Through appreciative and critical inquiry, the truths discovered demand reconciliation with the past so as to be freed for the work they are called to do as "informed citizens, thoughtful stewards, critical thinkers, and responsible leaders"āAugsburg's mission! These essays offer a compelling example to other institutions about the important work of connecting past, present, and futureāof seeking truth through freedom by way of reconciliationāwork that is foundational to an institution's mission, identity, and future planning.
Perfect for courses such as: Place Matters: Colleges and Universities as Anchors in their Communities; Introduction to Interfaith Learning, Leadership, and Living; History of Higher Education in America; Foundations of Democratic Engagement and Higher Education; Introduction to Experiential Education; Foundations of Higher Education Leadership
