Liberal Arts In STEM

250 Words1 Pages
I believe that the liberal arts are one of the most overlooked and under-appreciated fields of study today. Society doesn’t recognize liberal arts as a necessity, but as an alternative to more “important” fields like STEM. We focus on math and science, and our children are pushed from a very young age to take STEM courses, rather than art or writing classes. STEM is an important part of innovation, but certainly not the only thing driving advancement. Liberal arts also plays a significant part in revolutionizing our world, yet society does not fully recognize the benefit of a liberal arts education. Liberal arts allows you to express yourself in ways you aren’t able to in math or science. In STEM, there is very little leeway in terms of correctness.
