<p>I can empathize with wanting the best for your child…but I would encourage you to reconsider " If you aren’t in a math or science based major then the sad truth is that you don’t belong in college." I started my academic career as a “Recreation” major…thankfully my parents urged me to attend a liberal arts college, where I switched my major to “Retailing” and eventually ended up with an Honors degree in <em>ECONOMICS</em>. I went on to get my MBA and spent 25+ years in high tech (as another writer noted…way back then, there weren’t even computer classes…or electric typewriters in typing classes). There are plenty of options today for kids to figure out their best path. Why not consider a community college option which will let your son economically address a range of liberal arts topics while fulfilling core requirements that can be transferred to a BA/BS program down the road ? You may find the next great English or Music teacher in your midst !</p>
