The stakeholders involved in programming and curriculum development are the school board, school heads, teachers, students, and parents (United States Department of Education, 2003). All the members are essential in putting the program together to satisfy every member. I think that the institution should maintain a more purely academic and liberal arts education with a focus on humanities. The issue of choosing between technical fields and liberal arts may be challenging. Some of the problems that arise from the issue are focus on the outcome rather than the skills one gain. For instance, people want to know the salary one would get from the study area.

Another issue is the relevance of the field today. Some people prefer technical skills rather than liberal arts because they think that one could gain arts from learning technical fields. Upon research I have learned that colleges play a huge role in society. For instance, they act as leaders in teaching students research, technology, and education, among other aspects (United States Department of Education, 2014). Also, colleges play a huge role in developing new cultural values and training people to be social in the new social Era.

Upon debate with peers, it was discussed that it is important for teachers to set the tone for their classroom environment the very first day.
