@inthehands I agree about the value of a #LiberalEducation ; but rather than worrying about STEM crowding out liberal studies, I think we have a greater problem with students going to university and coming out with only paltry knowledge of mathematics and science. Our elites are skilled with words but weak with facts and analysis.
