467: The One Where They Talk About Humanities Degrees

On this week's episode of the Unnatural Selection Podcast we discuss a bunch of stuff:  Tom's raising some money for The Globe theatre in London. Follow him on Twitter at @TomDHeath for more info. The LNP wants to 'reform' higher education for the worse. Easy way to attract people to a career? Raise the wages, which you control. The government doesn't know what's going to happen with job needs in the future. There's more to an education than economic output. Turns out high-level cognition is actually important for the jobs of the future. It's not fair to lay a literal child up with debt that they will bear the burden of for decades. STEM doesn't even beat humanities on the economics. Some more Trump stuff. The Unnatural Selection podcast is produced by Jorge Tsipos, Adam Direen and Tom Heath.
