[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was a female STEM major in the late 80s-early 90s. Not very common. In our school district it’s been nothing but STEM since my firstborn (2005). Writing fell to the wayside. Reading is down due to iPhone/social media usage. Schools aren’t even requiring full novels to be read. Most exams are multiple choice only on a laptop. We put our kids in Jesuit high schools - left public. They are equally as strong in STEM and English/humanities/languages. I am such a huge proponent of a true liberal arts education. [b]Look at these big tech billionaires with zero ethics or empathy. A lot of that is STEM only focus[/b]. Most kids were told STEM is the only employable field and everyone got the memo and that’s the field (and finance) everyone is headed for. It’s saturated. [b]Without knowledge of other cultures, religions, history, literature we get the dystopian world we are currently living in.[/b] [/quote] Amen, sister![/quote]
