At the risk of feeding the troll, CMU theatre alums are making $$$ in Hollywood. I’m sorry you feel so bad about yourself that you need to insult someone else’s field of study. [/quote]

LOL Hollywood doesn't give a shit about theatre major anywhere

$24,400
Salary of Theater Graduates with a Bachelor's Degree
The median salary of theater students who receive their bachelor's degree at Carnegie Mellon is $24,400. 
This is great news for graduates of the program, since this figure is higher than the national average of $20,100 for all theater bachelor's degree recipients.

You are so invested in insulting others. I’m sorry your father never said he was proud of you. [/quote]

Sorry about the facts and reality.  
You are delusional.

Delusional posters. Unless you're a 1%er why would you let your kid major in theatre?[/quote]

University shouldn't be a playground or hobby for rich people.

Universities were founded by and for wealthy people, who are you to come in and say that they should change?

what do you think- the great unwashed attended university?  the whole point of scholarship is to serve the intellectual needs of those who don't have to work, its not a trade school, you don't go to university  or college in order to learn a trade primarily, that is a byproduct. I say this as someone who has had independent wealth until my parents generation and women in my family have never worked outside the home unless it was a passion project like medicine or art whilst all having at least a bachelors degree for most of the 20th and 21st century.  So we spend tons of money educating children who are never expected to earn any money, you sent your children to school so that they are not uneducated. even Bertie Wooster went to Oxford and got a degree.  I understand the world has changed and higher education is now available to a greater amount of people from all sorts of backgrounds but I don't think it is fair that the history of these places as an escape from world of commerce and a haven for the intellectually curious should be whole taken over by those who need their offspring to be capitalistic drones plugging away at some pointless commercial enterprise. There should be a balanced you also have to realize, not everyone is in the same financial situation as you, the American middle class has been hollowed out, most people are either working class and should only go to college if it is what they really want in order to realize a life that they think is within their grasp which is becoming increasingly difficult and then there is large percentage of people who are actually quite comfortable and can choose to study whatever they wish and aren't in any urgent need to choose a lucrative field.  Of course you might not believe that this should apply to CMU which was funded to minister to the needs of ordinary people who needed to learn engineering or some other trade but it is silly to extend that to all universities.
