    I went right from college to grad school, and I'm glad I did. As a returned missionary, I'm already old compared to my peers.

    Great topic!!.......

    Even though Sancho claimed Sitake was an "upgrade" over Bronco, thereby losing all credibility in every topic, ever......it's hard to disagree with anything he's said here.

    Having said that, it would be impossible to answer without the specific circumstance of every person who's considering it. For example, my daughter graduates this semester after five years, then goes on to a four year graduate program. In her circumstance, it would have to be an unbelievably compelling reason to take a gap year(s) as she'll be 27 by the time she hits the work force anyway.

    OTOH, in my wife's case, she worked three years between her undergrad and MBA (maybe you aren't thinking FT employment as the definition of "gap year"?) which made sense because it was basically a requirement to get into the program. She was 28 when she hit the work force for real.

    My hope is all my kids do graduate work, so a "gap year" would have to be pretty compelling. I think a mission and FT employment are the exceptions. Because of my core beliefs I'm supportive of a mission under nearly any circumstance. However, a year hitchhiking in Europe or doing work unrelated to your future might be difficult to swallow. As a parent, I only hope I can influence them to do the right thing for them......and that could be wildly different from kid to kid.

    Funny enough, just today, I asked my 20 y/o sophomore how things were going? how were her grades this semester? Still thinking law school? etc..... and she replies she's "thinking about taking a gap year or two" after she graduates -- perhaps working for a non-profit in Europe. She is a steroptype millennial, and given the timing of this thread, made me chuckle.

    Other than philosophy and political science, I don’t have a problem with dropping those majors. Not a lot of need for German and French majors these days.

    Why are those two exempt? I'd rather work with a language major than a philosophy/poly sci major any day.

    The rest of those degrees lead to liberalism. At least a poly sci major has a chance to be a conservative.

    I hope you guys are kidding.

    I don't mind satellite campuses like this one focusing on their regional needs.
    Not every school needs to offer every major. UW students will survive.

    One thing, however, that administrators often overlook is that courses like History and Spanish are much less expensive to offer than some other kinds of courses.
    There's no specialized equipment, no labs, no expensive software. All you really need is just a chalkboard and some desks. Plus, the profs. make less money overall.

    One thing missing in all this is a more comprehensive student perspective. Per the linked article, there is a vocal group railing against these changes. We don't know if they are minority or majority, but in my experience I suspect they are a vocal minority.

    Tomorrow at my institution's Open House, I will fulfill my twice yearly responsibilities to promote and recruit for the programs I teach in and administrate. Many students and parents will attend to ask important questions, as they prepare to make their final choices about which program to enrol in, or whether or not my school is the right one for them.

    Having participated in Open Houses for close to sixteen years, and having access to statistics concerning attendees, between sixty and seventy percent will be students who will be graduating high school this spring. Ten years ago that number was higher (eighty to ninety percent). Of the thirty to forty percent who will also attend are mature students: second career, current dissastified university students, those that took a gap year to work etc. Those numbers could very well be more like 50/50, as it has been trending that way for a while.

    Most of the students will be domestic (our international enrolment is through the roof: thank you for voting Donald Trump into office—he does our recruiting for us!). Of the 30 - 40% who are one, two or many years removed from high school, and who are at the Open House to inquire about my technology focused programs, all of them will be there because they want hard skills that will help them find gainful employment in the job market. We boast an 85 - 90% employment rate for graduates. They have been to university, heard about the irrelevance of what is taught, or have worked in low-paying jobs and are disillusioned.

    Of the 60 - 70% that are there to plan their next step after high school, most will avoid inquiring about those same tech heavy programs I teach in, because they perceive them to be too challenging. In two, or three years, they end up in my program anyways, because there are not many jobs for people with a diplomas in video production and absolutely no jobs for the photography graduates, and the Graphic Designers (I teach in that program as well) quickly hit their salary ceiling unless they dramatically upgrade their coding/programming skills.

    Basically, what I am saying is politicians and administrators are an easy target, but it is the market and pace of technology more than anything that is determining what is happening.

    The world is changed. Automation is here, AI is proliferating, and young people will either learn to make the machines work for them, or they won't work—hence, a $15 minimum wage, or talk of a living wage for citizens:

    McDonalds is losing workers, in part because of a $15 minimum wage, but also because workers find the job too hard ...

    Is stem education the answer—not necessarily. The education system is ripe for major upheaval. It will be interesting to see what happens over the next five years.

    If this is really how it is now, then I am sad for today's college students.

    HOW A GENERATION LOST ITS COMMON CULTURE


    My students are know-nothings. They are exceedingly nice, pleasant, trustworthy, mostly honest, well-intentioned, and utterly decent. But their brains are largely empty, devoid of any substantial knowledge that might be the fruits of an education in an inheritance and a gift of a previous generation. They are the culmination of western civilization, a civilization that has forgotten nearly everything about itself, and as a result, has achieved near-perfect indifference to its own culture.It’s difficult to gain admissions to the schools where I’ve taught – Princeton, Georgetown, and now Notre Dame. Students at these institutions have done what has been demanded of them: they are superb test-takers, they know exactly what is needed to get an A in every class (meaning that they rarely allow themselves to become passionate and invested in any one subject); they build superb resumes. They are respectful and cordial to their elders, though easy-going if crude with their peers. They respect diversity (without having the slightest clue what diversity is) and they are experts in the arts of non-judgmentalism (at least publically). They are the cream of their generation, the masters of the universe, a generation-in-waiting to run America and the world.

    But ask them some basic questions about the civilization they will be inheriting, and be prepared for averted eyes and somewhat panicked looks. Who fought in the Peloponnesian War? Who taught Plato, and whom did Plato teach? How did Socrates die? Raise your hand if you have read both the Iliad and the Odyssey. The Canterbury Tales? Paradise Lost? The Inferno?

    Who was Saul of Tarsus? What were the 95 theses, who wrote them, and what was their effect? Why does the Magna Carta matter? How and where did Thomas Becket die? Who was Guy Fawkes, and why is there a day named after him? What did Lincoln say in his Second Inaugural? His first Inaugural? How about his third Inaugural? What are the Federalist Papers?


    Some students, due most often to serendipitous class choices or a quirky old-fashioned teacher, might know a few of these answers. But most students have not been educated to know them. At best, they possess accidental knowledge, but otherwise are masters of systematic ignorance. It is not their “fault” for pervasive ignorance of western and American history, civilization, politics, art and literature. They have learned exactly what we have asked of them – to be like mayflies, alive by happenstance in a fleeting present.

    Um, guys, it's an art project. My daughter's a student at the U and studying for finals in the library right now. Everyone there is laughing about this. It's giving the students some welcome comic relief.

    Visual artist Nemo Miller has installed a cry closet" in a library at the University of Utah, where she is a student. The piece is designed to allow students 10-minute secluded crying sessions — a must for anyone even remotely close to taking a final....

    They’re an artist, not a comedian, and the art is not meant to be funny, but is sincere ...

    First, I assume you’ve spoken with the artist to know what she, not they, intended. Also, your point is not clear. Can you elaborate? In other words, do you have anything important to say, or are you just engaging in the lamest trolling imaginable? We do try to have friendly, respectful conversations here, but you seem to want to challenge that order. Almost constantly. It’s very interesting.

    This is a thread, in tone, that regularly addresses the absurdity of the trigger warning, hypersensitive social justice warrior cultures often fostered on post-secondary education campuses. I am not out of line posting this article here. Nor am I out of line for gently “trolling” about the story, based upon the common practices of this Web site despite the “friendly, respectful conversations” often shared here.

    Had this same art project been installed on the BYU campus, there would’ve been no shortage of posters on this site posting about and reveling in the absurdity of it all, while making fun of BYU, and by association its students and fans of its sports teams in the process.

    As far as the artist’s intent is concerned, I’ve read no less than three articles where it is made clear this installation was created as a sincere creative act:

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...ary/553082002/

    The university acknowledged the closet's installation, which was approved by the school, was an attempt at humor but also a "work of art meant to provoke feeling, thought & conversation, which the artist has apparently done."

    It’s spelled “humor” in this country, son.

    I thought you said she was an artist, not a comedian, and could only produce “sincere” work. Visual artists can produce sincerely comedic works, can’t they?

    You'll have to humour me on the fact my auto correct defaults to British spelling. The University of Utah considered it an attempt at humour, the artist on the other hand considers it "a work of art meant to provoke feeling, thought & conversation ..." which I'm sure the artist realizes can also be construed as potentially humorous.

    I assume you’re quoting the artist herself. If that was her goal, she has succeeded. My point is that the crying booth was an art project, one that students like my daughter thought was funny for the reason anything is funny: it contains an element of truth. What is truly amusing (and revealing) about this little episode is that some people have tried to make an individual’s art project into an official university endorsement of “snowflake” behavior. Now, if the U of U had installed safe spaces with crayons and Play-Doh for students fearing their exams, then you might have something about which to antagonise, er, antagonize us.

    HOW A GENERATION LOST ITS COMMON CULTURE
    LA, You probably ran with a different crowd than I did, but the students I interacted with in college and law school from 75-85, were pretty uninterested in education and general learning and more interested in the game of doing well in school. I would say that I fell into that category as well. I spent my first quarter at the U mostly interested in parties and girls, did a semester abroad in Israel through BYU (sort of an outpatient drug re-hab), did a mission (loved Spain), returned to BYU for a semester (too many rules), got married and finished at the U, went to law school at University of San Diego for a year and then finished at BYU (most boring people I ever met). The move from USD to BYU was financially motivated. While painting with very broad strokes, the most interesting and well-read group of students I interacted with were at USD. Unlike most of the people I interacted with at the U and BYU, they were more interested in the experience than the job at the end of the rainbow. Maybe the fact that there was a greater diversity of background and ideology gave rise to more robust and interesting discussions or maybe since few were married they just had more time and inclination to have coffee and talk. I have spent the past few years reading and in a very few cases re-reading the "great" books and trying to learn more than the 9th grade civics version of history. I try to read things written from different historical perspectives. It has been a rewarding and enriching experience. I'm not too worried about today's students. I don't think they are too different from my generation.

    Most universities, including tooblue's art institute, are probably closer to this than we all know. Pet therapy day, massage therapy day, crayon therapy day. And none of those places, no matter how many crying booths are installed, are wussier than BYU.

I would say that I fell into that category as well.
    Sounds like you didn't major in literature, philosophy, or chemistry (unless is was pre-med).
