I think it is time we abolish liberal arts and humanities in our public universities but before I tell you why I want to share something about myself.
I took BSc Agricultural Economics degree in one of our local public universities. It was not my preferred course, though. I took it out of sheer desperation. The door to technical courses such as Computer Science and even BSc Agriculture was closed, leaving me with no option. Anyway, as I was a JAB (now called kuccps) student, I decided to take it anyway because after all, beggars cannot be choosers. If my parents had the money, I would not have touched the course even with a ten-foot pole.
