I've been told knowing Chaucer won't land anyone a job. What's college for, anyway?
As I have told you on the Shed lawyers are poorly educated lot and not very well rounded as you continue to prove. What does reading most things have to do with a job directly.HUDS you are a pitiful person. People like you don’t even realize your education was inadequate.HHusky said:I've been told knowing Chaucer won't land anyone a job. What's college for, anyway?
BTW I never thought of college as just a way to get a job. That is a pretty ignorant view.

I don’t care about the board. It is superfluous to our conversation and an obfuscation.HHusky said:

“In spite of being a scientist, I strongly believe an education that fails to place a heavy emphasis on the humanities is a missed opportunity. Without a base in humanities, both the students — and the democratic society these students must enter as informed citizens — are denied a full view of the heritage and critical habits of mind that make civilization worth the effort.
There is, of course, another way to view the question of whether a liberal arts education has value. It can be seen as posing the question as to whether college should be seen as some kind of higher vocational training, instead: a place to go to for a specific certification for a specific job.
Here, too, I would push back strongly.
For those who go to college, the four years spent there are often the sole chance we give ourselves to think deeply and broadly about our place in the world. To turn college into nothing more than job training (emphasizing only those jobs that pay well), represents another missed opportunity for students and the society that needs them.
So, these are my traditional answers to the traditional questions about the value of humanities and arts education vs. science and engineering. From my standpoint as a scholar, I'll stand by them and defend what they represent to the last breath.-Opinion, Adam Frank

I think this was largely true decades ago. Humanities are now just indoctrination into being a leftard. No critical thinking is approved. At Oregon in the 1970s, Sociology and Political Science programs were already thoroughly contaminated by commies. The History program was still pretty traditional Western Civ and you could actually learn about how the US became the best and fairest country in the history of the world. Toss in some traditional economic classes and a minor in Accountancy and you could both do numbers and sh*t and about how fragile our Constitutional Republic was from a historical concept. That is now considered hate speech. Sad.DJDuck said:

It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That we got this far -
Don't do #1, or you'll send couch potato invalid @dflea into a colossal meltdown.doogie said:3 choices as I see it.
1. Get involved with the school bored where these decisions are made and effect direct local change
2. Find another (private?) school for your kids
3. Suck it up buttercup, nothing stays the same.
