Just like Chemical Engineering is taught and is different than Chemistry, ... and some places also have an Engineering Physics major as opposed to the regular Physics major, ...
Yes. Medicine, Architecture, Pharmacy, Nursing, etc.
That is hysterical. At the engineering school I attended the standard joke was "Architects take funny physics and funny math." Can you do medicine without chemistry? Isn't pharmacy mostly chemistry?
Frank Lloyd Wright made leaky roofs.
Maybe Liberal Arts is inherently illogical and should be ignored. Is that why Europeans cannot figure out that Europe is not a separate continent from Asia? There are only 6. LOL

Nothing hysterical about it. You just don't understand it.
Engineering, medicine, architecture, etc. are fields where you apply science, math, etc. That doesn't make people in those fields scientists, mathematicians, etc.
7 is generally the accepted number of continents. But to say there are 6 as such an absolute without considering there could by 5 or 4 is a demonstration of why not everyone is college material.
Gee, all those people on the Politics forum who have been ranting about "liberal" arts education all these years, refusing to send their kids to "liberal" arts colleges, because they don't want them to get indoctrinated into liberalism, and don't want them to waste their time studying the arts, could have enlightened themselves just by turning to Wiki. What a resource! Surprising that more people don't use it.... But maybe Wiki is part of the "liberal" conspiracy.

That's the thing. It's a bit of a catch-22. College teaches you how to learn. If you didn't go to college, you're less likely to see out answers -- or even know how to do it effectively.

Yes, a misunderstanding. What do conservatives do when they see on a bottle of suntan lotion: "apply liberally"?
But English is a living language. So I'm not opposed to changing the name "liberal arts" by popular demand. However, you can replace the name but you can't change the classification. As Texaslawyer said, the Greeks got it right and academic studies haven't changed. The sciences still belong with philosophy.
I keep saying that, whenever his name comes up in discussion, but people keep saying he was brilliant.
He was brilliant. If anyone wants to make the case that The Guggenheim, Fallingwater, Price Tower (Bartlesville OK) and a hundred others are anything less that great go ahead. IIRC eight of his spaces have been designated to UNESCO's World Heritage list and he won an AIA Gold Medal in 1949 or maybe '50.
