A Defense of a Liberal Arts Education

The seven classic liberal arts include logic, grammar, arithmetic, geometry, astronomy, rhetoric, music, logic.

Somewhere in the last 40 years, Rush Limbaugh and Fox convinced right-wingers who never went to college that a liberal arts major means taking basket weaving and feminist studies courses.

The classical liberal arts education in college still means a classical liberal education with coursework in math at least up to analytical geometry, science electives, language, social studies and civics.
I was a liberal arts student. Had 4 years of mathematics. Four years of science.
 
You're the one that claimed I would have to Google to know who Dirac was.

Good god this animates you to no end.

LOL. You are so upset because you think that SOMEONE MIGHT NOT THINK THE MIGHTY CYPRESS KNOWS WHO PAUL DIRAC WAS.

You are so triggered it's not even funny. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

Proving you disastrously wrong is not "triggered" :laugh:

Dirac is known to any serious college student who had a few semesters of physics

And now we have to know HOW you know it.

and bothers to read popular science magazines. What exactly led you to believe he was obscure and mysterious? lol

Oh my. You are so BRILLIANT CY. I'm serious. You just know EVERYTHING.

Jesus, dude, didn't your mommy give you enough love? WTF is wrong with you?

You must have gone beyond the basic requirements for a humanities B.A. degree which at the universities I attended typically only requires analytical geometry and one or two science electives.
 
Hilarious! You had to frantically Google for ten minutes to find a Florida retirement job Dirac did in his 70s, decades after his historic quantum physics research days at Cambridge University 🤣

Go ahead and google what special pleading is.

Right, I was not a humanities major, it was a liberal arts program.
 
Explain to the board why you can make a false claim about me, but then somehow it's bad form if I prove your claim was incorrect.

OMG, what an hilarious overreaction. FALSE CLAIM! FALSE CLAIM! OMG EVERYONE EVERYONE PLEASE LISTEN TO ME: CYPRESS ALREADY KNEW WHO PAUL DIRAC WAS

CYPRESS IS SUPER DUPER SMART!


Fuck dude, call your mommy, get a hug. WTF is your malfunction?????????????
 
Okay, so you have no credible explanation for why you can make a false claim about me, but then it becomes bad form if I prove your claim to be wrong.

Jesus dude. I actually just made a joke that you needed to google Paul Dirac. I honestly didn't expect you to melt down over it.

Sorry. I know you're a "special needs" little guy.
