Living Through a World Without Right Answers—With Questions of Your Own

Until recently, success was often measured by how quickly one could produce the “right” answer.

But today, young people entering society are faced with questions for which no single answer exists.

Career paths, work, relationships, one’s place in society—

none of these offer a clear “correct” solution.

Each individual must make their own decisions and define their own direction.

In a World Beyond Certainty, Perspective Matters More Than Perfection

From a young age, children are often taught to seek the correct answer.

But in doing so, they may begin to suppress their own thoughts and emotions.

What do you think?

Why do you feel that way?

The ability to express these inner viewpoints is essential—

not just for communication, but for building a life rooted in self-awareness and agency.

To Ask Questions Is to Build the Power to Live

Holding a question means walking forward without a clear path.

But it is precisely because the answer doesn’t come easily

that we deepen our thinking, engage in dialogue, and expand our perspectives.

At Liberal Studies College, we don’t focus on memorizing correct answers in English.

Instead, we cultivate time for reflection and the ability to form meaningful questions.

Raising Children Who Walk with Their Own Questions

No matter what kind of world they grow up in,

the questions that live within each child will guide their journey forward.

We believe those questions—shaped through curiosity, reflection, and courage—

are what make a life truly one’s own.
