Balance Between Practical and Intellectual Education 1 The Contrasts and Importance of Balance Between Practical and Intellectual Education Lauren A. Loeffler Thomas Edison State College Balance Between Practical and Intellectual Education 2 Abstract This paper strives to explain the importance of balance between the practical and intellectual education.
