[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you force your kid to major in a STEM? I'm not disagreeing with it, I just don't know how you follow through on the demand. When a kid goes to college they can pick their courses, they can drop and add, they can change majors. How do you know any of this? And if the kid switches his major, you really going to yank them out? An obvious bluff nobody would ever follow through on.[/quote] College admin Here: when I worked in STEM I would have parents come in with their child to discuss them changing their major to STEM. I have also had students on the verge of an all out mental breakdown from the course work and the parent calling because they don't want their child to switch their major. It is horrible to see parents running their adult child's life, most of the time to the detriment of their own child's growth.[/quote]
