Hard disagree.
My first degree is in Creative Writing and my employees, customers, and vendors, and partners all benefit from my ability to express my thoughts well, as do I.
A good liberal arts degree teaches critical thinking as much as the subject it’s taught under. Grammar, logic, and rhetoric are a set of skills that are foundational to organized thought, persuasion, and self expression. Let me not also forget to mention that it’s wonderful to READ LITERATURE in an academic environment in order to develop an appreciation for art… and also personal development.

quoting note1dr2…lhm0I absolutely recommend going to college for degrees in math, computer science, engineering and medicine.
I do not think it’s a good idea to waste your money on a political science, English literature or liberal arts degree..
If you are worried about your kids turning ‘woke’ just by going to school, they were too impressionable in the first place.
