I’ve seen some stats that show overall you will actually lose money by getting some humanities degrees. However I really think things have changed. A lot of the employers of Linkedin have some kind of Masters degrees and as a top level academic I feel like if I just stick with a BA I’ll never get into an upper level job. I would get an MBA or something but I can barely count. What do you think the value of a Masters is? Are the humanities a PHD only kind of deal?
