An article to cause debate, discussion and dialogue (I wonder how many will ask why use all 3 words then think further or go right on?).
Some sweeping statements to create the STEM or liberal arts camps. Pretty sure people looking for employability go a few steps further in choosing actual course and place, and even style, to study.
A deal of studying a subject is the interaction not just with the subject but the quality of the tuition and interaction with fellow students.
Having read Geography and Social Anthropology first degree (But awarded a BSc) and then years later returning to study Business, sense is this debate and dialogue requires some data input and definitely warrants a series of further engagements.
Looking back inside one's self (I am about to read your quiet contemplation piece as fits with some thought trains) then looks at what looking to achieve?
