Humanities enrich the tech industry

Older individuals who have studied the humanities, History, Art, and English are very successful creators, analytical thinkers and researchers. They can take complex problems and find novel solutions.

But there has been a shift. According to PBS, only 5 percent of college graduates earned liberal art degrees in 2018. Instead, young people opt for a degree that will lead to a high-paying job and are told they can't make money with a liberal arts degree.

However, that is incorrect. Many who have studied humanities have enriched the tech industry.

• Seek out new knowledge. Take courses, learn the language, and become friends with those who know things you don't.
• Work with intelligent people. Seek out teams who are smarter than you and work with people you can learn the most from.
