It is of absolutely no value for anyone to learn anything except business (no stats, of course) and engineering (but none of that hippy shit about safety). The rest of it is just an effete waste. If Bob Jones disagreed, he wasn’t Christian enough.

This is why UT Austin folk just can’t wrap their minds around what is happening. But they have convinced the business interests that the humanities don’t matter, STRM will be spared. But this is requiring state delegations to funding agencies to “explain” the DEI position.
