[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College might be your only chance to study Gregorian chant or read Tolstoy or ask yourself whether you believe in utilitarianism. Go for it. Smart, realistic, self-aware people with a good work ethic and strong critical thinking, research, and writing skills will figure out a way to make enough money -- and maybe even have some fun doing it. [/quote] You’ve got this backward. Smart people will figure out a way to “study Gregorian chant or read Tolstoy or ask yourself whether you believe in utilitarianism” without paying $300,000 for it. They will go to college to make enough money to make that $300,000 education pay off. The days of “go to college to acquire knowledge for its own sake to make you a better person” are long gone. The humanities and liberal arts departments that sell that line of propaganda have priced themselves out of the market.[/quote] +1[/quote]
