When Ramsden leaves Harvard for the real world, she’s planning to be a professional runner. I ask her what she’ll miss most. “I think I’ll miss being super busy, even though it’s hard to imagine right now,” she says. “That’s...
...how the work of poets from Oceania dismantles colonial tropes and reframes climate change migration, to be specific. Seems like a doable Pro/PhD double. A lot of focused reading during rest and recovery. Beats playing video games or tooling around on a podcast.
A PhD in 'environmental humanities'. What a pointless subject. Why not be normal and get a MBA?
Right, an MBA. So she could study more useful stuff like promulgating corporate synergies for maximizing the cross-linked intellectual value of widgets.
all due respect but people that bright and successful usually make it work. she will probably be 10x as successful as you are being a drone doing exactly what is expected.
has it struck conservatives yet that they sell freedom but you use it to major in whatever and suddenly it's nah i meant get a degree in making me money.
posters like this are why humanities courses should be required in college. why bother trying to understand historical and cultural perspectives? we have money to make!
Honestly, I’m certain she COULD get a phd in aerospace engineering if that’s what she wanted to do. She’s won two NCAA titles while a student at Harvard. Say what you want but this is what success looks like.

So she'll be taking government grants paid for with my tax dollars to fly to Tahiti and study what indigenous poets think about global warming. Then in 5-10 years she'll have a high-up position in our bloated federal government bureaucracy (the primary career path for Ivy humanities PhDs), where she'll have the power to decide what kind of car I'm allowed to drive, what kind of stove or appliance I can use, and other ways to make my life miserable based on her interpretation of what she learned from the Maori people about global warming.
As long as we're paying for it and have to live with the consequences, I believe we have the right, and arguably the obligation, to mock this self-important nonsense.

I guarantee you she could not. Running a 1500, translating poetry (which I'm sure she's impressive at), and aerospace engineering are different skill sets. Furthermore, given her political views, she probably doesn't want to design more rockets and airplanes.

Lol. Why are you posting like aerospace engineering is the hardest thing ever ... it's not.

What are her political views? you know most women are pro choice right?

Tool.
I said they are different skill sets. Winning a 1500 championship is arguably much more difficult. But aerospace engineering requires quantitative reasoning skills which the others do not, and which she likely doesn't possess.
