I have A Liberal Arts Degree, I make more than 50K. Perhaps the issue is based more in a lack of understanding of what Liberal Arts is. If you are blind I can explain what the color blue is until time ends, but you will never understand.
In this case, I think Liberal Arts is your "Blue"
Some of those look like important fields. An enumeration of an idea can never be complete as the idea reflects infinity.
Even this enumeration, which is a list of subjects, does not contain the essential idea of what Liberal Arts is or is not. I would be hard pressed to argue against training people in the methods of Advertising, or K-12 Education. Perhaps there is a flaw in the premise that Liberal Arts is bad?
Though perhaps the world would be a better place with no religion and no Lawyers.
I am confused by this, Do I think using a biologically different method than those before the scientific revolution? No. Do I have more tools in order to make better judgments? Yes. Liberal Arts is not about thinking any particular way, it is about learning to think for yourself. The Philosophy of Science is not a science, it is part of Liberal Arts, and that is what our science is based in. The people we consider the most hard core academics have Philosophical Doctorates (Phd). I think this is a gross simplification on your part that shows a slight lack of understanding.
