Science Majors Make Bombs, Humanities Majors Prevent the Bombs From Going Off

David H. Nguyen at India West.
"Alas, that which controls the greatness and the terror afforded by STEM fields is not found in the curriculum of STEM programs. It will not be found there.

"For in the humanities is where it is recorded. In the humanities is where it is sung. And in the humanities is where we are reminded, that rocks can be carved into marvelous statues or placed on a catapult and flung."
