About as useless as a Women's Studies degree.
"About as useless as a Women's Studies degree."
And I feel the same about both... it's not wrong to study something you are interested but to elevate it to a major and devote major university resources seems a waste.
In a way though it's a filter as to who not to hire. If somebody shows up with a degree in women's studies that tells me immediately they did not go to school to learn to be productive.
And BTW, I'd feel the same about somebody with a degree in "White people studies."
It's not just that it's useless, it's academic claptrap. It's not even "studies", it accepts no point of view other than the prevailing one, completely political and if yours is that point of view, no paper will ever be rejected.
ain case you haven't seen this one.
Time to roto-root Catholic Univserities.
Actually, this is the first degree I've heard about that is perhaps MORE useless than a Women's Studies degree!
