[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you define a liberal arts major? That can be anything from English to physics.[/quote] The study isn't about majors, it's about the average return on investment for degrees from liberal arts colleges vs. degrees from other universities. When you compare a physics major or English major at a liberal arts college to a physics major or English major at a private or public university.[/quote] Well that’s just silly. They are two entirely different groups of students!! Unless you’re controlling for things like SES, I don’t really think you can make meaningful conclusions from this.[/quote] Well return on investment figures it in somewhat--if it only costs 20k to attend the public u and it cost 60k to attend the LAC, then you have to have much higher income to get a similar return.
