[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will only let them get a liberal arts degree if they have a clear reason and path for a career and if they understand and are ok with likely $. For example, English major only if they would love to be an English teacher and if they understand they won't make much. [/quote] I pressed submit to early. I will definitely be encouraging my kids to study a practical degree, not a liberal arts degree. College costs way too much now to get an impractical undergrad degree. And I got a liberal arts undergrad degree and a science master's degree. Guess which degree led to me making literally double the salary I made before? There is also a double standard with liberal arts undergrad degrees. A man BA grad gets to be a writer right out of school, while a woman BA grad gets to be an admin asst.[/quote]
