The left have destroyed liberal arts education. I agree with Sowell.

One of the great things Hillsdale college has recently done is stopped giving teaching degrees without a 4 year degree in something else. If you want a teaching degree from Hillsdale, you're going to get a 4 year degree in History, the US Constitution or whatever first.

Before the left destroyed liberal arts education, it was actually considered valuable because the education reached into so many other areas-- history, philosophy, music, art and design, etc.

My uncle, just out of the air force from World War II was majoring in physics, spotted this trend, and ended up being a professor of sociology as a career.

That was before the libtards got ahold of the department and transformed it into an amalgamation of victimology from a sociological viewpoint.
