This paper emphasizes the necessity for strategic education to help develop the way of thinking that can solve or illuminate strategic problems. The author advises that such education should not strive for a spurious relevance by presenting a military variant of current affairs. Furthermore, the author argues that a liberal education in the classical sense must be helpful to the human performance, which is a key enabler of high quality in national strategic performance.
