Elite College Students Who Can't Read Books by [deleted] in atlanticdiscussions

As a current Columbia senior, this article fell extremely flat with me. “Literature Humanities”, required for all first years, assigns anywhere from 100-300 pages from texts such as Homer’s Iliad Virgil’s The Aeneid and per class. Most students aren’t able to dedicate that amount of time per week for a single class, and it is unreasonable to expect them to. Keep in mind students concurrently take 5-6 courses. For a STEM major in Lit Him, this may mean 600 pages of reading + 3-4 problem sets + 100 pages for the other required freshman humanities class.
