My kids have science degrees from front line colleges.
The daughter earned the tuition back in three years.
The son went into the US Army as a 2nd. Lt. Spent four years working for bubba.
Came out of the service, resigned his commission and it took him a very short time to earn back the tuition.
In both cases the tuition after four years was a bit over $100,000.
Neither took anything remotely connected to ‘liberal’ classes. One skirted the loony lib profs by taking photography as the required liberal arts class and the other took several languages which qualified for liberal arts classes.
I wanted to take photography for the same reason, but the class had out of pocket costs. So I took ceramics instead - that certainly enlightened my “learning experience”. I scored the 3 credits for graduation, which was all that class provided. Oh, and even though the class was ceramics, as useless as t*ts on a bull, the ‘professor’ was a flaming lib. Talk about adding insult to injury.
