Doesn't that just frost you? 164 credit hours for a bachelors degree in ME, and I coulda done the same thing *snerk* with a women's studies BA.

"...business and corporations find the need for more sensitivity to women's issues..."

Ahhhhh, but women supposedly can do anything a man can do, therefore, they should have NO issues!

I would think a Women's Studies degree would be a red flag to employers: a warning of a hypersensitive individual who is likely to sue your company at the slightest provocation. HR would just find a nice, quiet, equally unqualified Art History major to hire, instead. ;)

"The major prepares one to do anything any other liberal arts major does but with deeper insight into issues of oppression and celebration of women.

I wasn't aware that McDonald's was in the business of either oppressing or celebrating women.

Yeah, serious. Why did I suffer through thrmodynamics & differential equations?

OK. my school didn't offer WS, because there were only about 2 dozen women on campus.

The only use for a diploma in Women's Studies is as an emergency feminine hygiene product...

When I was in college, I was quite interested in studying women. After almost 29 years of marriage and raising three daughters, I know more about women than I care to think about.
