Liberal Arts Makes You Thoughtful And Employable

Studying philosophy, literature, and history makes you not only able to think but also thoughtful—aware of your shortcomings, humble before what you don't know, and able to communicate, read, write, and listen—skills that are in great demand in the workplace, so a real liberal arts education does help with careers even though it doesn't work like a scannable professional credential.
