I am a nerd. I have worked with many nerds. Many of them have NO interest in literature or learning anything about Western culture.

Remember the folks that chanted 'Hey Hey Ho Ho Western Civ Has Got to Go" in the 60s.

They run the universities now.

Remember the folks that chanted 'Hey Hey Ho Ho Western Civ Has Got to Go" in the 60s.

They run the universities now.

I remember them vividly, and not with fondness. I had to step over and through them to get to classes.

They weren't majors in the hard sciences--you cannot BS your way through essay questions in physics or chemistry--you have to go to class, and you have to attend a lot of lab sessions.
