<p>Someone told me that I seemed like I belong in a Liberal Arts school. What are some of the stereotypes associated with students at Liberal Arts schools?</p>
<p>Soon to be unemployed?</p>
<p>Wealthy hipsters.</p>
<p>Academia and research PhD types.</p>
<p>pretty damn awesome</p>
<p>loves learning for the sake of learning.</p>
<p>touchy-feely, need to be coddled</p>
<p>liberal (American definition)</p>
<p>^^^yep .</p>
<p>It’s about being unique and not wanting to fit into stereotypes.</p>
<p>A relative of mine thought that a liberal arts school was the same as a liberal arts major. This person recommended against being a liberal arts major (nothing to do with a liberal arts college, IMO) because it would lead to unemployment (as in post #2).</p>
<p>CEO in training.</p>
<p>Actually, they probably mean you not science/engineering “looking” to them. However, there is nothing wrong with a good liberal arts education. It teaching you how to thing and actually makes you and “educated” in the broad sense individual, who can carry on a conversation. Plus linked with a good graduate degree can take you many places.</p>
<p>Someone who enjoys learning more about history and music and religion and philosophy even if none of these were his major…</p>
