Liberal means (in the educational sense), "concerned mainly with broadening a person's general knowledge or experience, rather than with technical or professional training."

A liberal arts college is one that provides opportunities for study in a variety of subjects, usually in a broad assortment of arts, sciences and humanities. These schools often have a core curriculum, requiring their students to take courses in many different subjects to make them well-rounded, knowledgeable people.
