Bill Clinton did not study something 'useful' in college. That helped him have two terms as US President.

Law is not STEM. Look, tired of proving you wrong.

I know you have no idea what happens in higher education. Graduate degrees are what B.A.'s used to be. Stop making a goddam fool of yourself.
Your perceptions are colored by your dislike of her, therefore you can't be trusted to have a neutral, good-faith opinion of her
And a good or promising record of research/publications.
Clinton did go to law school with it. His liberal arts degree gave him the knowledge he needed to get into law school.
You can tell Cypress has a liberal arts degree. Too fucking stupid to get anything else. Democrat of course.

These illiterates have no idea what happens in college.
They think that by watching two minutes of YouTube videos they are an expert on anything, and can tell the real experts how to do their jobs.

The sad thing is, rightwingers repeat what their leaders say--who all have advanced college degrees.
GOP leaders in Congress are well represented by Ivy League graduates. None which have STEM degrees.
The Republican leadership sees STEM as something for peasants.
I used to know Rush Holt, who was fusion physicist in Congress. Obviously, he was a Democrat. I am trying to think of the last time I talked to him. It was after he retired from Congress, but before the pandemic. I guess he is one of the people I lost contact with during the pandemic.
Side note, I just looked it up and Holt went to NYU(not Ivy League), but he did research/worked at Princeton(Ivy League).

"Shut up and calculate." The idea that the sciences should not think about political power or any meaningful description of the world.
Another version of, "Get back to work!"
Sad but true.

Not L.A. either.
It’s basically a trade school.

There was a time when I actually liked her.
She even gave me a ‘like’ for that post (along with you BTW). But typical of the far left, disagree with them on one issue and they fuck up the relationship. It’s been bad since.

Everything is pre-law.
I also know a guy that got in with a chemical engineering degree. He made a fortune doing environmental law stuff .
You can go into law from almost any major, but you generally need a bachelors degree in something. Clinton did well enough undergraduate to get into Yale Law School.
Meanwhile, trump was rejected from every law school he applied to.
