[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since the .com boom people see liberal arts is silly, it's not as good as STEM. [/quote]

Liberal Arts includes natural and physical sciences, mathematics, statistics, etc.  So chemistry, biology, physics, biochemistry, neuroscience, psychology, computer science, data science, etc. can be included in Liberal Arts.[/quote]

Right but people don’t seem to get that. [/quote]

I think some people think Liberal Arts is nothing other than sitting around drinking coffee reading poetry and discussing philosophy.  A complete misunderstanding.

Most of the students at the most selective colleges will actually be in liberal arts majors.  If they are in STEM, they are likely doing it through liberal arts.  Harvard has over 40% of their undergraduates majoring in STEM.  All but about 5% or so that are in engineering are doing it through liberal arts majors like biochemistry, neuroscience, computer science, mathematics, biology, chemistry, etc., etc.  [/quote]
