<p>Well. ReallyOK, what are those “conservative values” that need to be q part of the conversation at a place like Bowdoin?? I would argue that the NAS report does not even begin to understand what a truly conservative education would be, which would be about things like Greek, Latin, pure math, great literature, philosophy, oratory, art history, etc. The authors of the NAS study seem to be mostly interested in injecting right-wing propaganda into the curriculum (why else the fixation on things like US military history??) than providing the elements of a truly classical and traditional education. Bowdoin actually has politically conservative professors in its government department, who teach many of the courses the report falsely claims to be absent from the Bowdoin curriculum.</p>
