Beyond Reason and Tolerance argues that to prepare students to engage political, ethnic, and religious differences, higher education must adopt a developmental model for a formative and liberal undergraduate education. This developmental model involves a process of growth involving empathy as well as reasoning, values as well as knowledge, and identity as well as competencies.
