A MESSAGE for liberal arts majors. It's a good message, with two caveats.

One, the author himself didn't major in liberal arts as he himself defined them - philosophy, history, mathematics, language (reading/writing), and science (the scientific method). He majored in "a predictable runway to successful and well-compensated employment" - economics.

Two, the liberal arts, again as he defined them - philosophy, history, mathematics, language, and science - do not include the current politically correct victim studies that have burrowed deeply into today's liberal arts curricula.

Finally, as somewhat of a side note: despite being a lowly engineer, I have a significantly greater claim to a liberal arts education than most current liberal arts graduates, having taken three or more (usually significantly more) college classes in every one of the five areas specified.
