I think you mean the MiM-Ide Thesis is right.

Actually I mean the Yi thesis if you want to get picky about it Mr. I Need Affirmation.  I was the first one to propose ending student loans for non-marketable majors.

So would psych be dropped under said regime?

Unless it comes with a Cisco CCNA cert, you betcha.

I can't speak for Yi, but all I've ever said is that schools (and I mean the DoE, because schools are too self-interested to be good gatekeepers) should just pay attention to demand and matching production to it.  This is what anyone with even the most rudimentary sense would do in any other situation involving any other good.  Is there an overproduction (or underproduction) of psych majors?

I think psych regularly ranks up there in worst major choices as followed by typical income post-college.

Well, I hope you enjoy your network course.

Good question.  On the one hand you do need head shrinkers; on the other a lot of undergrads seem to treat psych as an easy way out.

Why would I need a network course?

[Ideologue]

Because the CCNA exam is hard.

It does, however, provide an excellent foundation and baseline of knowledge for team-building exercises in the Human Resources sciences.
Just ask Cal.

I don't think I need any certs / MR certs seem like jokes.

[Ideologue]

It's just an example.  I have no idea what it is, except it involves servers and/or routers.

[CountDeMoney]

It's very marketable.

[Ideologue]

Explains why I don't know very much about it.

I think psyche is a great degree. Knowing how to manipulate your fellow human beings is a wonderful skill to have in the great big dangerous world out there. Good foundation for marketing.

Yeah, another variant of the anti-intellectual argument.  Rather than attack education why not turn your mind to the way it is funded?

MiM is right.

Only if you accept his first premise which I dont
