Knocking Anthropology? Gov's Daughter Has Degree
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. October 13, 2011 (AP)
When Florida Gov. Rick Scott singled out anthropology degrees as job
market losers, maybe he had some inside knowledge. It turns out his
daughter, Jordan Kandah, has an anthropology degree from Virginia's
College of William & Mary.
Commenting this week about the need to steer students toward degrees
with better job prospects, Scott said, "You want to use your tax
dollars to educate more people who can't get jobs in anthropology?"
Kandah did not go to work in the field of anthropology. She was a
special education teacher before enrolling recently in a Masters of
Business Administration program.
Scott spokesman Brian Burgess said Wednesday the governor wasn't
knocking anthropologists, just making the point that there's a high
demand for graduates with engineering, mathematics, science and
technology degrees.
What is the purpose of Higher Education?
Truth to Power: The Federal Department of Education

Worst paying College Degrees in the U.S. and almost all the fields
are in arts, education, and social work.

The Department of Education is a Business.

Jobs left America for China by 1970 That's when America started going
downhill and China starts to rise up.
K-12 Public Education's original purpose was to make people into
better citizens. Which meant prepared for the farming life, the
factory life, complacent, compliant, and happy for whatever horrible
work was available to them. You certainly didn't need an education
that made trouble for the corporate master.
