Looking at that list, I might add Economics to it, provided it was based on curriculum outlined by Thomas Sowell.
It seems mankind went to university for a long time in fields of study that would benefit all humanoids. Kind of seems like we veered a bit.
I completed the core technology upper division courses in less than two years. I had to spend an additional year filling in the graduation requirements with crap liberal arts courses.
In the end, I had taken over 140 credit hours before I finally graduated. In USAF Tech School, we did almost the same thing in about 7 months regarding relevant subject matter.
It's called a BS for a reason.
60% - at least
Schooling for employment and schooling for personal enrichment are very different things. People just need to choose wisely, but still according to free choice.
Exactly.
My guess was 90%.
Most 4-year colleges where parents spend a small fortune to transform an optimistic bright student into an unhirable godless socialist of dubious gender all too ready to move back home to their basement.

I have read that many of the Chinese government and even the CCP leaders have at least BA’s in hard science/technical degrees.
Looks like politicians are people who had easy majors ...
And the very idea of “political science” is an abomination.
No.
excuse me ...
HELL NO!!!
Instead, we should get government out of the business of issuing or guaranteeing student loans and educational grants.
You want a degree in whatever, you find a way to pay for it. Don't stick We the Taxpayers with the bill.
Do that, and the system will right itself.
>75% ?
Our number of colleges and universities could easily be halved, I think.
Anything that will not assure you a good paying job needs to go. Both my degrees were in Science, Geology and years later Pharmacy. The day I graduated I had a job waiting.
Relative to the arts I am confused. The arts are well worth studying but should it be on the public dime? Perhaps this should be confined to private institutions?
The school of education should be ripped to its roots and disposed of, as it is leftist indoctrination and a danger. That school needs total reformation.
Perfect response!! I agree.
not. just higher education but likely all preschool on through university, masters doctorate etc etc, it’s all been distorted and everyone working at the universities is helping the problem, not helping the solution.
So…. People with easy majors are running the country? I wonder if there could be another way of viewing this state of affairs…
I’m sure there are many ways of viewing it ... but my way is correct.
And Political “Science” is an abomination.
