@skitman1958 i agree. i always get tired of opinion, and the subjective side of things. I've been working to get better at math, because i know you limit what you can ido n life if you dont have adequate mathmatical ability.

Fuck Hill ...the one eyed con man...

I think Americans are too detached from the real world. In fact everyone knows YOUR FUCKING CLUELESS

@dhills2009 So math is my thing. That is true. And now you have it. I love it. It is the only absolute. Without it there is nothing. It is in fact the only way we can talk to "God". Someone once said that. Truefully I hated college. I found that most did not really appreciate the purity of math or really understand what it resolved to. What makes me the arbiter of useful? It is math. If it produces something it is useful. Thought is not useful, the result in it is. That is a fact.

Okay, so all the things you attempt to parse are skills that the university setting nonetheless aid in developing--including the humanities. You've invalidated nothing I said :)
But for the 4/5th time now (forgive me for losing count; must be my 'inferior' math abilities), again, what makes YOU, Mr. skitman1958, the arbiter of 'authentic', 'useful', or 'valid' educational pursuits within the college/university setting?

No "preconceived beliefs"...just questions--what makes you the authority of university education--or are you the standard for reality itself? lol.
I don't like card games.

And...please stop revealing your ignorance--I'm not training to be a social scientist--that's anthropology. My field is Philosophy/Religious Studies--anthropology is a methodological approach to those fields.
You've gone off on another ridiculous tangent (your math "skills" aren't helping you now). I've made no blanket assertions. I've asked, for the third time now, you to explain what makes YOU the arbiter of what is or isn't a utilitarian degree, which you haven't.

More conjecture and crude rhetoric. Good job. Further, these are not "my" criticisms. You made a broad statement about doctoral studies, and I asked you to clarify the leap that you made. Enough said.
The economic climate has everything to do with getting into Ph.D programs--if the economy is in shambles, that means less funding--which means less spots--which means more competition to get in.
Math isn't my 'thing', I got a 640 in it; with 760 in verbal on the GRE (cont)

@dhills2009 College education furthers knowladge, nothing else. Thinking skills are developed at a much younger age. And critical thinking is of far less importance than abstract thinking skills. Critical thinking is little more than a sophisticated way to think and talk about why people are people. Abstract thought process, now thats like majic. It has given you almost everything you see
and have. Humanities, natural sciences etc. All useless bullshit, unless you intend on teaching it.

@dhills2009 Whats the economic climate have to do with this? As far as 2 and 3, your guessing again chief. Not very good at poker are you? Are you better at math? I doubt it. Your not a very good "social scientist" either. My posts tell you everything and yet you are blinded by a simple mindset that you can not see. How can you possibily expect to educate others in your field when you start each day with preconcieved beliefs without knowladge. Talk about sad.

Just another example of 'how to waste air time' from FOX.
Not one of these people are topically relevant to the subject matter.
O'Really has made a career out of asking the wrong questions from the wrong people.
Never forget where FOX broadcasting comes from people - the same place the National Inquirer does.
Name one good thing that's happened to this country since FOX News (so-called) was put on the air?
Rupert Murdoch has sped up 'the race to the bottom' for Americans and America.
