Historian Steven Mintz described general education today as 'a smorgasbord of disconnected disciplinary classes that does little to ensure that undergraduates obtain the foundational communication, analytical and critical thinking skills.' This criticism highlights the fragmented nature of current educational requirements, which often lack coherence and rigor, leaving students without essential skills.
The evolution of higher education has led to a curriculum structure where general education is viewed as preserving a liberal arts education while majors provide specialized learning, creating a balance that some argue is increasingly problematic and in need of revision.
