[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s often the result of immigrant asian parents who only see Engineering/Law/Medicine as acceptable careers. Try to tell these people you are studying the humanities and watch their reaction.[/quote]

It was best said by the person who coined the phrase "American Dream"

James Truslow Adams

But there has been also the American dream, that dream of a land in which life should be better and richer and fuller for every man, with opportunity for each according to his ability or achievement. It is a difficult dream for the European upper classes to interpret adequately, and too many of us ourselves have grown weary and mistrustful of it. [b]It is not a dream of motor cars and high wages [/b]merely, but a dream of social order in which each man and each woman shall be able to attain to the fullest stature of which they are innately capable, and be recognized by others for what they are, regardless of the fortuitous circumstances of birth or position.

Also, remember it's the American Dream not the American Promise. [/quote]
