Meaning absolutely no disrespect to either you or your daughter, but what does a major in Geography entail? My memories of school are somewhat vague after all of these years, but my main memories of geography are capital cities, types of biomes, names and locations of mountain ranges, lakes, etc ...
I'm assuming that collegiate-level geography is more involved than what I remember from grade-school ....
“But even considered as “hobbies,” these areas add much to life beyond the functionality of the theoretical and applied sciences. Still, much that goes on in the humanities these days is little more than left-wing propaganda. One of my daughters majored in Geography, and I was amazed how thoroughly politicized even THAT field has become. (Perhaps needless to say, her college degree has nothing whatsoever to do with her actual employment, which is in accounting and bookkeeping.)”
I have nothing against PRIVATE universities teaching whatever the heck they teach as long as taxpayers money (which is always stolen at the gun point) is not used to subsidize things. If you’re rich enough to afford un-subsidized private education, it is none of my business if you want to waste your money on crappy things. In fact, philosophy and arts might just be for you. You can hire the business people and scientists to do the real thing. Suit yourself.
But, we should not be subsidizing these useless philosophy, sociology, and arts courses in these gubmint funded universities.
