Abstract:
One of the regrettable consequences of technological progress and urbanization has been a loss of perspective - both literally and figuratively. In a time when there is a great deal of discussion of socially "deprived" or "under-privileged" groups in society, it seems appropriate to consider the visual "deprivation" to which all of us appear to have fallen victim. It is the purpose of this brief essay to point out some of the elements of our environment which have led to this state, the role of the university in this process, and some possible, if highly speculative, remedies.
Keywords:
