Like math (one of the liberal arts)?

And natural sciences like chemistry, physics, biology, and geology?

Nobody really gives a damn about Hopkins, Northwestern, Vandy, etc. at the undergraduate level. Everyone knows status-obsessed families outside of the Ivy Plus schools were rejected from all of them. Not cream of the crop.

+1. Only striver mediocrities obsess over this crap. The elites will always be elite.

The undisputed elites:

Harvard, Stanford
Yale, MIT
Princeton

The rest are pretenders needing ED contracts to boost their yield.

Based on what?

Rice, Caltech, Ga tech, and Harvey Mudd are wayyyy better schools than Princeton, Yale or Harvard for things like engineering. Harvard and Yale are great for getting inflated grades in useless fields that are paths to become a consultant or lawyer who gets paid big bucks to outsource jobs or ruin the country later as a politician, hedge fund manager, corporate lobbyist, or some other sell out who ships jobs overseas.

Harvard has about 50% of undergraduates majoring in STEM fields. I'm betting you didn't know that.

Not sure what your definition of useless is but based on the rest of your post, the people with these "useless" degrees do well financially and hold a lot of power.

Yes, it is too bad they are not educated.

Expected for schools that refused to play USNews ranking game for years. Had they played the game, they would be in T20s.

Isn’t Reed burnt to a crisp by now anyway?

How can you be so cruel? I have a friend who teaches there and I'm very worried for her (and everyone in the path of the fires). This is just mean.

I figured this was a rioting “joke”. Also tasteless.

I think PP believes that STEM majors will take over. I think. The worship of STEM lives on!

Penn State engineering degree is more impressive than an English degree from Harvard or Yale.

Is it? What probably is true about your statement is the Penn State engineer may make more money in the short term than the English degree graduate from Harvard or Yale. But the Harvard or Yale English graduate may still have opportunities to do jobs in areas that pay well (consulting, finance) or to go to a top graduate school (law, business). If you are just interested in earnings, majors probably matter more overall than the school. Remember that when you compare earnings between schools. It may largely be a factor of the degrees chosen by graduates.

Yale and Harvard will have more famous graduates who majored in English and other arts and humanities majors than Penn State will have in engineering. Jodie Foster studied literature at Yale, Edward Norton and George W Bush majored in history, George HW Bush, economics. Conan O'Brien majored in history at Harvard, Tommy Lee Jones in English, and Al Gore in government.

The hardest about a Harvard English degree is getting in, then it’s a joke.

More impressive to whom?

Keep in mind, it's college, not trade school.

Not as hard as it for you to write a sentence in English.
