Is Education a PC or a Mac?

link here to article

Bill Gates has advocated improvements in the teaching of science and math. Steve Jobs has argued that the humanities have been key to success of Apple. Wesleyan University has been an advocate of a broad liberal arts education which includes science and the humanities. The President of Wesleyan argues that both are platforms, rather than specific skills, and that the PC and the Mac are really platforms that have been behind the success of both companies. They both have led to complementary developments that have enriched their companies.
