<p>My opinion (and of course you are free to agree or disagree) is that college shouldn’t be an end in and of itself, it should be a stepping stone to where you REALLY want to be. You seem to understand that the more “vocational” approach is what will prepare you best for the career you want. And you don’t seem to see any “long term” advantage with a liberal arts degree.</p>
<p>Remember that you will actually have some free time, vacations, etc. at any school you go to. You will be able to fill that time with whatever activities fill your personal needs that otherwise aren’t being addressed by your curriculum. </p>
