Nobody would pay for studies degrees if they were using their own money and not roped into it all as a 17-18 year old when making the decision. The student loan debt crisis is a studies degree crisis. I don’t see many STEM majors complaining about their CS or engineering degrees.

“OH MAI GAWD, I’m making TOO MUCH MONEY!!! It’s unfair to poor kids. I’m being too white.”

OP here. I just want to make sure in case there's a misunderstanding, but this "required elective" garbage is infesting more than just the bullshit lapdance degrees. I attended a state university to get a criminal justice degree (with an english minor) so I can apply to law school and become an attorney, and they have whole sections of mandatory credits covering a broad range of leftist diversity ideals that I was forced to take in order to graduate.

Ever wonder how there's literally district attorneys getting arrested for throwing bricks at businesses and other forms of violent protests? It's because the brainwashing has spread beyond the non-sustainable degrees to the essential careers.

I went to a top tier school and we had that too before all this started, but our ‘breadth’ requirements weren’t necessarily as strict. For the most part, no matter your major, you had to take base level writing/reading classes, math classes, science classes, a history class, an art class, etc. Within that, you could hit all the requirements and still not hit a single studies class, though you could take a studies class for an easy A if you weren’t a white guy, which was probably their main appeal to people.

Here in the Bay, that’s probably changing now. I’m hearing we’re going to have mandatory black studies type classes, which is a departure from what it was before. Before it really was just ‘take a wide variety of classes at least once to expand your horizons’. Now it’s moving towards ‘take Double Think 101, 102, 103, and 151, bigot‘. Even APA formatting has now been changed to capitalize ‘Black’ and keep ‘white’ in lower case in reference to race. Why not just replace black with ‘God’ and get it over with?
