Heath, Douglas

Douglas Heath's "Growing up in College: Liberal Education and Maturity" expands upon Heath's work, "Explorations of Maturity," and studies a small group of young men at a single college using the "theory of maturity." The book aims to assist educators to clarify the goals of liberal education, and to explore what types of environmental determinants affect healthy development in young adults.

The collection consists of Douglas H. Heath's typescripts of four of his books published between 1971 and 1994. They include "Lives of Hope" (3 folders), "Schools of Hope" (4 folders), "Fulfilling Lives" (3 folders), and "Humanizing Schools" (5 folders).
