Women's studies aren't useful in the business world

I actually changed majors because my university was going to require me to take 2 Women's Studies courses as part of the gen eds for my Computer Science (CIS) degree. I switched to Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) which replaced liberal arts classes with engineering classes. I didn't even know that major existed until I was about to schedule women's studies bs.

I wasn't presented with that as an option. It might be because my foster father was an alum made sure I was registering in a BSE program. For the life of me, I don't understand how someone could feel fulfilled spending tens of thousands of dollars to memorize fluff to tell other fluff heads! I don't see it making any substantive difference to the world.

My brother is in the field of fluf and he is making a killing. 3 different psychology degrees, being good looking and being very openly gay is a money maker

Sure, I'm not saying there isn't a living in fluff. I'm saying that you are interested in learning, learn something useful that offers a return to the world. Degrees is "social" areas tend to be worthless except as a self-perpetuating, self-validation device for simpletons

BTW, Psychology has a purpose besides teaching other people how to be psychologists ;-)
