[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My brother was an engineering major at a top program and they would have lecture classes with 700 students in intro and a professor with a heavy accent and 1990s technology to broadcast to the back of the room. Basically he just got the notes and worked from the textbook. At least now for all these classes there is better technology, including explanatory videos etc. I would guess that schools are not allowed to discriminate in hiring based on accent.[/quote] There aren't enough candidates for discrimination to be an option. America sucks at STEM. This is the result. [/quote] I am waiting for someone to chime in with: But my DS/DD studied French at a liberal art college and is now working in big law. He/She is making five times what a STEM major makes.[/quote]
