I want students with more conventional analytical minds to expand their cognitive repertoire and rhetorical skills by gaining further experience with narrative thinking, with knowing the world through story, poem, and song, through imagery, metaphor, and symbol. I want future engineers to learn to use a deft combination of fact and feeling, of the empirical and the imaginative ... to understand that truth through analysis and paradigmatic argumentation is but one way of thinking, that equally valid is truth through narrative knowing.
