There are lots of ways to answer this and one of them is that studying history makes you a better citizen and our public universities have an obligation to produce good citizens. History education is essential to a republican model of government. Engineering is not.

as a 51-yr-old college professor, i feel old a lot, but nothing has made me feel more ancient than the fact that anyone would consider bringing a drink into a job interview. i could no sooner debate this than the propriety of riding your unicorn to that same interview.

the "wit & wisdom" curriculum used in the "good" magnet schools in our district has kids read hatchet and another book by the same (white male) author in 4th grade. i think they read 4 books total, TWO WRITTEN BY THE SAME WHITE GUY from the 1980s! with all the amazing middle grades lit out there?!

There is something so unbelievably bleak about an article that calmly walks readers through how to navigate being laid off after 50, losing your health insurance, and somehow surviving the years until Medicare. What a broken country.

At best, older workers will struggle to find health insurance that bridges the years before they qualify for Medicare at age 65.
