[quote=Anonymous]Because for $100k+ you need to be able to get a job other than an admin assistant with a BA in English. My husband has an English degree. He is in the service/manual labor industry. He will be the first to tell you his college experience was great, but his degree is useless. Except when he corrects people for using the word "funner" which now we all know isn't a word. None of our children will be getting an English, Poetry, or Arts degree from a 4 year university that we pay for. They are welcome to have flourishing passions for any extracurriculars but it's just bad financial sense to pursue those degrees anymore, and they don't have trust funds to support those types of choices.[/quote]
