NO LIMIT TO THE POSSIBILITIES
Six months before Ralph Tyler's death, Ms. Hiatt talked with him about the big questions -- those having to do with education, learning, and the meaning of life.
In August 1993 I interviewed Ralph Tyler, professor emeritus and former dean of education at the University of Chicago. We had known each other since the early 1970s, when I was at UCLA studying under a former student of Tyler's, John Goodlad. Tyler and I maintained a professional friendship through the years. I wanted the opportunity to record Tyler's reflections on life, education, and his career. At the time of the interview, Tyler had recently entered St. Paul's Health Care Center in San Diego. He died on 18 February 1994.
