520 _aThis is one of the courses offered in the tertiary level mainly because it is part of the liberal education. Etymologically, the term "liberal comes from the Latin word "libre" which means free. Simply defined, liberal education pertains to an education that liberates (or frees) oneself from ignorance and prejudices. Thus, it pertains to all general education subjects primarily intended for individuals in order to have a broader understanding about themselves, the people around them, their environment, and the world. In the words of Anderson, the goals of liberal education are for the "students to have well-rounded personalities, to be more tolerant of diversities, and to be less hasty of the unfamiliar". True enough, basic tertiary education always involves liberal education because it is desired that college students should be educated on the basic human and social aspects of life, not merely an acquisition of skills. There can be good physicians, lawyers, engineers, architects, etc. but if they are lacking in liberal education, their perception are biased, their senses prejudiced and their feelings uneducated. More than the acquisition of skill, men must be trained on how to become true human beings with capacities to learn and with abilities to change the world. Thus, understanding the self, students will be made aware of who they are and What they can do, and how to recognize even the complexities of their relationships with the various social environment and phenomena of the mysterious human behavior.
