Her reward came at A&T’s December commencement, where she walked the stage a semester ahead of schedule to receive a degree in liberal studies .

This kills me. Liberal Studies? Come on now. What really makes me angry is that about five years ago they were saying that having a liberal studies or liberal arts depending on the name of the degree (both the same) was beneficial because it gives you an overall outlook on things. Those professional advisors did not have any future outlook other than that day apparently. I think liberal studies should only be allowed for those wanting to learn for themselves but not for any sort of career...just for fun!!! lol.

Agreed! The really bad thing is that’s she’s waiting for graduate school to start!

I work in an IT department at a major university and the running joke is that on the back of a liberal arts degree is a job application for Starbucks.
