> Humanities are now just a dumping ground for morons when they used to be the smartest people on the campus.
It's hard. An old friend of mine was a music major. Masters in music from Harvard, majoring in early music. Read and wrote Latin and Greek. Read and wrote early music notations. Could play a wide range early instruments. Never got a job that used those skills. Died recently, forgotten, in a Maryland suburb, her most visible lifetime accomplishment a book on needlework.
Another, younger friend also got a music degree from an Ivy League school. But she went to work for an app toolkit startup which was acquired by Microsoft. She's done very well.
