We recently concluded the 4th SoLS Conversations, Bridging Design for a Better World and Liberal Studies, where key takeaways highlighted the need to reimagine the role of education in today’s world. Panelists emphasised the rigidity of traditional academic disciplines, with faculty often stuck in roles that reinforce boundaries rather than encourage interdisciplinary collaboration.
