this chart is just bullshit dude, but more importantly: there are so many (new) BME/BioE programs out there by no-name universities and no-name departments, so of course the majority really is a waste of a degree.

I had to go look that school up because this is the first time I have ever heard of it. I cannot even name the New England states. Anyway is that considered an elite school on the east coast. People I know that go to Stanford land sweet jobs through alumni network.

Bowdoin is definitely elite, but it's a small liberal arts college. It ranks right up there with Pomona, Calremont, etc., if not better. It's acceptance rate is lower than that of University of Chicago, it's just a private liberal arts school, not a University, so there's no public research fund.

/thread

We do science so we can have a concrete understanding of the universe we live in, in terms of physical phenomenon with causal relationships, described with mathematical specificity.

We do engineering so we have better technology, better medicine, longer lifespans, etc.

We do art so we can enjoy the things science rewards us with.

We do philosophy so our art will be something a little more than just aesthetic.

Also philosophy is the father of all fields, for philosophy is simply thinking about shit. You can't say that's not important in infinite contexts.

Seriously niggers, learn2humanity

Science is the engine of progress, but engines have fuel. Scientists, philosophers,etc. are bread and raised average people, who give their lives to trivial pursuits that intelligent people are too undisciplined to dedicate themselves to.
