Off topic but brings up the issue of how we want to encourage everyone to go to college. Yet so many college kids get degrees in areas which don’t need to career paths. They don’t make enough to pay off student loans and still have money to pay their other bills.

Once upon a time Liberal Arts was an honorable degree. It meant the graduate was well-rounded, versed in the foundations of western civilization and all that sprang from it, including our business system.

Such graduates were valued because they were highly adaptable to many different situations. There are a handful such as Hillsdale College in Michigan where this is still true. For most of the rest, a Liberal Arts degree = Marxism and Politically Correct studies and graduates who, at best, will become reasonably competent apparatchiks and, at worst, will become professional victims.
