The Problem: “The Last Biparitisan Cause” - Zakaria
“We don’t need a lot more anthropologists in the state. It’s a great degree if people want to get it, but we don’t need them here.”
“I was making a point about the jobs market, not the value of art history. . . . [A]rt history was one of my favorite subjects . . . and it has helped me take in a great deal of joy in my life that I might otherwise have missed.
