Degrees of Uselessness?

 link

This piece is a bit longer than the others, but there are lots of interesting thoughts to tackle here.  What is the point of studying the humanities (like literature, culture or philosophy)?  Is too much or too little emphasis placed on them in the IB program?  In the Slovak educational system?    Should they receive less state funding than STEMs since they are supposedly less practical?  Are governments right to be wary of their influence?  Can they help make democracy stronger?
