Based on the author's case study of and experience teaching in an experimental general education college which was later closed by administrators, this article addresses the question of the meaning of the discipline of sociology in a general education curriculum. The author, reflecting upon insights gained through his participant observation in the experimental college, proposes that all sociologists look to the new sociology of knowledge and its reflexive methodology to help in the presentation of sociology as a humanistic discipline contributing to general education.
