[quote=Anonymous]Lots of STEM graduates find jobs quicker right out of college and at higher pay than your typical English, History or Government major. STEM majors become well paid individual contributors fairly early on. But. Look at earnings over time and look at the educational background of upper level management. They aren't the STEM folks. They are the people who know how to lead, how to think, how to write, how to influence others, how to think out of the box and how to bring knowledge from many disciplines together. They appreciate knowledge from many disciplines not just the narrow corner that is STEM. And that is not to say that STEM grads can't be all of these things too. This wide range just doesn't appear to be the strong suit of the STEM inclined though. It takes all kinds of expertise. Some pays off in the short-term and some pays off in the long-term.[/quote]
