I’m not endorsing the current state of higher education far from it.
I’m also not advocating for the kid who wants to party for four years, sing On Wisconsin, get mediocre grades in some McMajor and then expect to walk into a good job. As I said, most of those don’t belong at a university or college.
What I am saying is if you are smart, take your work seriously, and have a plan, you will do fine with a humanities degree. And that degree will prove to your ultimate employer that you are intelligent, educated, and committed to doing well, something you won’t have if you are just smart with no degree. Which is why those that are smart usually get a degree.
