A liberal arts education should emphasize that knowledge is valuable itself.

Which is a lot easier to get once you have a real job. The Euro-peon patron and class system is dead.

I work full time as an engineer and I play the bagpipe and study Scottish history. Wanna bet I now know not only more engineering, but more Scottish history than someone with a masters in history?

I dunno, but no one should confuse a liberal arts program with a trade school.

Freepers are a literate bunch. They read. It is the rest of society I worry about.
