> A lot of employees will have studied something in humanities. There are valuable skills (particularly writing and communication) that are learned in these degrees that might not be seen as valuable by your average techie. In my experience tech people value communication and clarity as much and maybe even more than your average person. Try to write code that would be unintelligible to your colleagues. You are not going to get praised for that. > The problem is not "useless degrees" (they're all useful, regardless of what you may think of them), the problem is insane cost of education. Absolutely useless. It is ridiculous to think that it should require 14+ years of schooling to learn to communicate.
