[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The US decided it was “behind”min STEM so the pendulum swung too far in that direction. And just look at all the joy all this tech has brought us. Social media algorithms that polarize us politically and socially and keep us addicted to it. A generation of students who’ve never read a novel. Algo trading that has lead to flash crashes, and just siphons off value from the financial markets without creating any actual value. Crypto nonsense. I’m not a Luddite, and I know technology is important for advancement of humanity, but our students should spend at least as much time considering what they SHOULD do (and for whom they should do it) as they spend considering what they CAN do. Which is why I encouraged my DC to only consider colleges that have a strong liberal arts core (even if DC majors in a STEM subject)[/quote] Well said[/quote]
