Topic: Liberal education is often characterized as transformative. Reflect on your education—and on what it means to be “transformed.” When have you been affected by a transformative educational experience? What did you learn about yourself or about the world in general as a function of that pivotal experience? How have you been changed, and what do you imagine/hope will be the long-term impact of this change?
More information, including deadlines, submission guidelines and previous winners, available from UW-L's Liberal Arts Essay Competition page and the UW System Liberal Education Initiative.
