ABSTRACT: Ethnic studies' interdisciplinary nature and
attention to race, ethnicity, gender, and class offer the
scholarship and teaching necessary to a field of study
appropriate to the liberal arts curriculum. The discipline
sheds light on the nature of Western and American
experience, and its development can help transform liberal
studies. (MSE)

This is an ERIC database document. ERIC is the National
Education Information Network for providing ready access
to the literature of education -descriptions of exemplary
programs, research and development efforts, and related
information that can be used in developing more effective
educational programs. The ERIC database is currently
available on CD-ROM in the main library (ground floor of
the west wing) at Michigan State University. To locate

number. If EJ follows ERIC TITLE NUMBER the item is a
journal article. The complete journal name is listed after
the code JOURNAL.
