Do the humanities need a rebrand?

Beats me. They think college is just job training.
People who can only talk about engineering schematics, NFL football, and TV shows get boring real fast.

I'm convinced having a broad liberal education underlying my science major had indirect intangible benefits to my professional relationships with colleagues and my career advancement.

but you're so inept at cognitive tasks.

I think you need your money back.

What these idiots do not know is the people at the top of corporations are not the tech people. The leaders are people who understand human motivation.

I like engineering schematics. This old Italian dude I used to do work for designed skyscrapers in NY.
I found his blueprints and explanations fascinating. We really clicked, sometimes I'd just go visit.
 
And they go on to get Phd's.
Right, you have to be really committed to learning Greek, Latin, and the classical canon. A lot of these kids must be planning on graduate school and perhaps ultimately teaching at the college or university level.

While women do tend to flock to the humanities majors, I suspect some would bristle at you terming it a "broads education."

I'm just saying....
 
So you can’t really identify those benefits.
You don't learn anything about human nature or the human condition in physics and calculus class.

I've never seen you write anything interesting, funny, or creative. But those are precisely the kind of things that pay off in professional relationships. And it doesn't hurt to be a student of the human condition, including history, music, art, literature, satire, and all the social sciences.

Boring people usually get left behind.
