[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seems like that’s all kids are majoring in. Many without the passion for it. Both fields are oversaturated with a lot of kids having no business being in these programs. Can we get a pendulum swing and have a push into humanities and trade schools?[/quote] It's all about tech and tech-adjacent fields. Engineering and CS majors will do just fine.[/quote] Go on r/CSmajors and see the many kids struggling to get an entry level or internship. Or how Berkeley CS students can’t find anything. It’s over saturated. 20% of Stanford undergrads major in CS. Swarthmore’s top majors are CS and engineering. I may have rose colored glasses on as CS and engineering USED to be great social mobility majors for low income and middle class. We need to tell the kids that’s gone now. CS is now the number one major with over 100,000 kids graduating each year with a bachelor’s. Surely a tenth of those kids could’ve done a trade.[/quote]
