[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does all education have to have a "practical" application? It can be argued that studying history and culture has a practical application anyway, in the sense that it makes you culturally competent in a global world and an informed citizen who uses the power to vote responsibly by being informed through context. Not every piece of knowledge you acquire has to be directly applied to a paid job. Life is more than work - or at least it should be. Some of you have a seriously narrow view of what life is about.[/quote] +100[/quote]
