Today, the world is evolving every second. A liberal arts college provides us to prepare preparation to become familiar with society since we are students. (This last sentence is not very good. I don't really know what it means. "provides us preparation to" is very indirect. And "become familiar with society"... it would be hard to be unfamiliar with society at large, one would have to live in a cabin in the middle of the woods. And why "since we are students"? They provide something else if we are not students?)

Summary for thesis
The New Liberal Arts SummaryIn his essay, "The New Liberal Arts", Sanford J. Ungar argues for the value of a liberal arts education by using today’s common misconceptions.
Some Americans assume that, because of the present economic climate, a liberal arts education has no advantages.
Ungar claims, however, that liberal arts are precicely what is needed in education, one's career and one's financial security. As he is a liberal arts college president, for instance, he states that liberal arts colleges focus on “Career education” which is exactly what many employers are looking for.
This job-focused education, enables students to prepare for a variety of jobs. Additionally, these liberal arts colleges provide not only art classes, but also a broad general education that includes science, which enables students to develop their own ideas, as well as problem solving and creative power skills. Furthermore, Unger’s thoughts about financial issues, is that a liberal arts education is a smart investment, because it is generally less expensive. Nonetheless, students can still succeed in their careers.
In my view, a liberal arts education can provide all the skills needed to succeed in today’s society. On entering the job market, for example, some students soon quit their jobs because they simply cannot adjust. There is a wide gap between the student’s expectations and reality. Ungar himself writes, “Through immersion in liberal arts, students learn not just to make a living, but also to live a life rich…” In other words, Ungar believes that a liberal arts college is not built to get the student a job, but to teach the student how to live a sophisticated life in today’s world. Today, the world is evolving every second. Liberal arts colleges prepare us to become familiar with our society.
* Took a number of liberties here...
In my view, the liberal arts education can provide get skills to success in/succeed in today’s society.(Because of "provide skills to" you can use either of these with "in today's". They have very very slightly different meanings which frankly aren't worth clarifying.) For example, some students quit their jobs immediately because they couldn’t fit in.(Plural "students" have plural "jobs" maybe "couldn't adapt." could be better than "fit in" which implies fitting in socially, being accepted.) There is a wide gap between students' expectations and reality. Ungar himself writes, “Through immersion in liberal arts, students learn not just to make a living, but also to live a rich life rich…”("himself" seems unnecessary here. If Ungar was admitting something contrary to his otherwise stated opinion, then "himself" would be very appropriate. If the focus of this article was different from what it is, other than an article/summary about Ungar's article, "himself" might be appropriate to emphasize that it was Ungar that was saying this.) In other words, Ungar believes that a liberal arts education college is not built to get students a job but to teach them how to live with a sophisticated life in today’s world. (Actually, Ungar probably uses the phrase "rich life" to confuse poor people, who think that means they will get lots of money and be rich, into taking on college loans to go to his college. Also "liberal education" has a political connotation, like "liberal versus conservative", much more so than "liberal arts".)
Summary for thesis
I summarized this"The New Liberal Arts" journal."The New Liberal Arts" Summary (There's rules I don't know for what to do with titles of things. Sometimes they are underlined or italicized or quoted. I usually just put all titles in quotes since this is on the internet.)
In the essay "The New Liberal Arts", Sanford J. Ungar advocates that a liberal arts education is valuable by using pointing out (some of) today’s common misperceptionsmisconceptions. Some Americans assume that a liberal arts education have has no advantage these days because of difficult economic times.(Yep(slang word), and I think they would be right.) Ungar claims, liberal arts is are what today’s needs in is needed in today's education, career and financial problems.(A little ambiguous. It's a form of education, so do you still mean it's needed to handle today's education problems? as well as career and financial problems? Or is it needed as today's education for handling career and financial problems?) As he is a liberal arts college president, for instance, he states that liberal arts college focusses on “Career education” which is what many employers are looking for.(Sounds like an unbiased opinion. This is sarcasm because he is the president of a liberal arts college.) This job focused training education enables students to prepare for variable varied/many jobs. Additionally, these liberal arts educations provide not only art classes but also broad education classes including/that include science, so that students can develop their own application, problem solving and creative power skills. ("the liberal arts education provides not only..." is much better. I've never heard "educations". "application" doesn't sound right in the list. "application development" is usually for computer programming. Maybe instead "students can learn to apply themselves and develop problem solving and creative skills." "students" or "a student")
