| sakky, #36 is once again an obvious point. but then you jump from "useful" to "likely to increase future income" and the latter just isn't a good model of how the world works.
look, i understand how someone who is focused on careers (perhaps as a professional occupation) would see things in your way, and an ivory tower academic would see it in my way, and the truth is somewhere in between. but it's very clear that maximizing {money earned}/{hour of work} isn't everybody's goal, and neither is maximizing {hardcoreness of class load}. the truth is complicated and somewhere in between. |
