[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Smart kids get hired OP, even art history majors. Just make sure he lands some good internships[/quote]

+1 math and physics are liberal arts majors too. The point should be to develop a skill and internship plan along with a major. [/quote]

+1. I’m “letting” one of my kids kid study geophysics at a SLAC.   He’ll likely go to grad school in geophysics as a very strong writer with excellent communication skills.

I am “letting” the other kid major in IR at a SLAC, with minors in French and Middle Eastern Studies (focus on Arabic language). The demand by the US government for American citizens with critical language skills (Arabic) is enormous.

DH’s parents “let” him get a degree in math and CS from a LAC. He was promoted to Chief Softaware Architect largely because he has string writing skills.

My parents “let” me major in Wnglish at a LAC. I went on to law school.

We are paying for our kids LAC educations with no need based aid or loans.

I don’t think OP understands what a liberal arts education is. [/quote]
