Anonymous: What law school at BSU Bakersfield are you talking about?

Because all humanities go to law school. A top 10 law school at that, because that’s where the moneys at. And no, a law degree from CSU Bakersfield wont get you 6 figures a year.

Also ignoring the fact, of course, that a higher percentage of non-liberal arts majors go on to Grad School than do liberal arts majors.

I take that back. Go ahead and get your science BA without going to grad school. Don’t come crying back to those of us in humanities that go on to graduate school or law school and make more than twice your paycheck. Boo hoo hoo

Hey Anonymous, here’s something to consider. All BA’s get paid $30,000 a year crap. It doesn’t matter what you get your BA in. It’s the “B” in BA that matters.

It’s also free money.

Again, you proved my point. While the new building has teaching facilities, it really only impacts a fraction of the undergraduate student body. Get out of Berkeley and you’ll realize that the Career Center lags way behind other top universities.

You also might want to work on that attitude, buddy.

It’s going to go rebuild a seismically unsafe building on this campus, outfitting it with the latest classrooms and laboratories. How is that research? You need facilities whether it’s teaching, learning, or research.

How does this not improve the undergraduate experience? IB/MCB/PH majors should be thrilled about getting new classrooms and lab space. Or are you a liberal arts majors who bitches about a career center because the best you can do out of college is 30k a year? Unless you go into law, of course.

Uh, yeah. How does that contradict what I said?

The forty million is going towards building a Research Facility where Warren Hall currently stands, you dolt.

Finally, Berkeley gets a major donation.

However, it’s earmarked for research (yet again). Will someone please pony up for new residence halls or a new career center or something else to fundamentally improve the undergraduate experience?
