Umm, no. Tell me what productive job requires "social awareness subjects and needs". People going $200,000 into hock for degrees that don't get them jobs is why student debt is out of control. Colleges shouldn't even be offering that garbage IMO.

I'm not talking about "science and technology" as I specifically referenced "social" degrees. But hey, if you want to fund your kid's degree in international gender studies or the like, I guess YMMV.
