[quote=Anonymous]Yup. I try to limit my interactions with the "why do you need a liberal arts degree" crowd, as well as the "why would you go to a SLAC' crowd. I spent much of my career as an investment banker, and as long as they could display some basic quantitative aptitude, I loved hiring liberal arts majors. I didn't want a department full of them, but having some around was always helpful. Probably the best hire I ever made was a HYP history major with a minor in studio art. They figured out the Excel part of the job very quickly and ran circles around everyone else otherwise. And as they matured in their career, I felt a lot better putting them in front of a client than the quant geeks.[/quote]
