The world would be much better off with more MLS degrees and fewer MBA degrees. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Viceversa@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago That's more of an evidence of MBA uselessness. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Eggymatrix@sh.itjust.works 1 point 4 weeks ago (4 children) What about a blue collar with 20 years of experience in their trade? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] talentedkiwi@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 weeks ago Depends.

In my opinion there are not enough abstract knowledge in how to manage a library and the subject is a manifestation of a proliferation of subjects used by universisties to advertise rather than something useful for society or students. I am of this opinion likely because of my bias as a stem graduate that makes me naturally arrogant. I am trying to assess if I can find someone to change my opinion. I failed for now. permalink fedilink source parent [–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago A Master plumber? Yeah. permalink fedilink source parent
