i’m all for encouraging girls to pursue STEM fields but can we stop acting like talent/passion for the arts is inherently less valuable than talent/passion for maths and science thanks

That’s why many schools are now pushing STEAM instead of STEM (the A standing for arts)

More importantly, however, I think schools need to do a better job of making sure students are aware of ALL of their career & higher education options.

WAY too many students are going into massive debt at 4-year liberal arts universities with no career plan because someone told them they HAVE to get a Bachelor’s degree even if they don’t know what they want to do with it yet.
