You are going to a STEM school to get a Masters in Liberal Arts and are complaining about value? K.

If you are going to college now you need to be doing it with a focus on ROI and that means most people shouldn't be in college. I have 2 sons. One is at A&M Galveston Majoring in Marine Transportation and will get a License as a Deck Officer as a part of his Degree that is a ticket to 6 figures out of school. My other son is in HS and is going to Biomedical Engineering and is an extremely strong student. He will be able to get into some pretty elite colleges most likely but we are focused on ROI and the best school with either the lowest cost or most scholarship money. He either wants to design Med Devices or go to Med School.

Both of those cost some money but they will both be set up for careers that are in high demand and pay well for the forseeable future. If they weren't doing that I'd tell them to go learn a trade and get paid. My elder son is also a welder and my younger son worked over the Summer at an auto repair shop. Kids today need to be prepared because life isn't going to be easy, better have some skills.
