GROWING WISE: A SOPHOCENTRIC EDUCATION

Higher education should go about more than informing students, but also forming them into wise human beings. 

A sophocentric higher education works to help students grow sapient, our highest aim as Homo sapiens.

But how may one grow wise? 

By the development of both comprehensive knowledge and intelligence of many kinds. 

Intelligence can be

•    Rational (logical, tactical, strategic)
•    Emotional
•    Intuitive
•    Spiritual
•    Valuational (meaning, significance, importance,
     benevolence)
•    Volitional (the drive to “make it so”).
