Good. I've been saying this for nearly 20 years now. There should not be open ended, tax payer funded student loans for degree programs with little to chance of employment. If you want to get a Gender Studies degree, pay for it out of your own pocket. The tax payer will get much more benefit teaching youth actual job skills.

It's for scholarships, not loans.

I think there’s some justification for scholarship for fine arts such as literature, music and art but less for student loans. I would consider fine art studies elective education. It would be like taxpayer funded loans for cars.
