“A liberal arts education teaches students to learn how to learn, and inspires them to go on learning throughout their lives.”
That is what it was intended to do, but that is no longer what it does. It functions as the indoctrination academy. Learning that there are other philosophies than your own does not in today’s academia mean merely respecting their existence, it means denying your own and ACCEPTING any but your own. By preaching that all systems are equally valid, equally moral, equally worth emulating, they preach the destruction of yours with an easily manipulated nothingness that has no moral home beyond the indoctrinated thought lines impressed on the mind as truth, not acquired by one’s own experience.

This same old BS wastes billions of $’s each year to pay left wing professors to preach their left wing dogma to idiots whose parents pay for this bs.
Then, after 5-7 years and a ton of money to get a BS (appropriate abbreviation) degree, the so called graduates or ‘Intellectual Yet Idiots’ are worthless in the job market.
They can’t think for themselves nor do they have marketable skill.
Then, as tax payers, we are expected to pay for this bs because the IYI’s supposedly learned how to think from being snowflakes hating white people and our constitution.
The UK started the college for everyone and their healthcare for everyone after WWII. Look at how successful both of those programs have been for the UK.
