[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do people with majors such as kinesiology, nursing, psychology etc. want to be considered STEM? What makes STEM "status" superior?[/quote] Nursing legitimately is STEM, in my view. The others claim to be STEM simply as marketing — because they are trying to attract more students to their department… [/quote]Nursing is not medicine, which is why nurses that kill patients can't be sued for medical malpractice - they aren't practicing medicine.[/quote] What is wrong with you? If you only have people who can't do math, can't understand biology, can't work with computers, you will have no nurses. The STEM push was designed to alleviate exactly these scenarios.[/quote] We wouldn't have tradespeople either. That doesn't mean carpentry should fall under STEM[/quote]
