Send your kids for sciences and engineering and only schools that take sciences and engineering seriously.

The Arts? Take a class at your local junior college after you’ve got a good constructive REAL job.

I agree. Biblical Studies can only “far” in life. As a prereq, Ok fine. I had to take an American Literature module just to go into basic Accounting (which is a head scratcher) at Stanford but it is what it is. The good part was there were lots of hot chicks in the class..

Both Christendom and TAC grads have gone on to graduate schools in STEM. There is nothing wrong with getting a solid liberal arts education. If you just want a job, then by all means live off campus and just take STEM courses somewhere. I have a political science & economics degree, and it hasn't stopped me from having a full career in IT. Nor has it stopped the Philosophy, Humanities, Sociology, English and History majors I have known in my career.

A good education in the Liberal Arts is still a good education, and is closer to what the Founding Fathers had. Education can be a good in and of itself, and not just a job training program.
