What should I do after M.A. Philosophy?

[Darius871]

I managed to get a BS in History and Architecture as well.

What alma mater is this? I'm simply astonished.

[Wiglaf]

Where on earth can you get a BS in that?

Georgetown has BS in what is essentially poly sci. It is a science and involves using computations and economics goddammit and goddamn you

My ass, one semester of a statistics course and a few other courses' chapters on the long-dead behavioralist epoch do not science make.

Ok, it still beats the hell out of filosofy though.

[Wiglaf]

Try four semesters of economics and a modern FL requirement you whore

[Darius871]

Econ = science?

[Wiglaf]

Computer science isn't science either by that standard. And neither is engineering. Yet both produce BS degrees. Look at the latin - Scientia, scientiae means economics

[Darius871]

Quit trying to justify those four years of existence. I gave up long ago.

"Think deep thoughts about being unemployed." As an English major, I'm working in pizza at present. An MA in philosophy is like a BA in English except:

1. You spent much more time and money to get it, thus branding you as an even bigger tool in the eyes of potential employers,

2. Despite the uselessness of the subject, the higher degree makes you all the more "overqualified" for general-purpose jobs, and

3. While the English major worked to develop his/her communication skills, you were actually striving to ruin yours with a steady diet of doublethink and doubletalk.

Clearly, you're doomed.

Clearly, the winning post.
