speaking of allen ginsberg, daniel radcliffe was cast to play him in Kill Your Darlings. interesting.
I love the internet. And I love media. I won’t front and I will admit that an embarrassing amount of my time is surrendered to the internet and even won’t hold back on my strong belief that it is the most important piece of my generation and its progression. That said, I also won’t hold back on my belief that with the way the internet and media has saturated society, it has made my generation completely numb and often blind. A “monster in society” so to speak, giving us too much freedom of speech, a destructive bombshell in its own right. My own theory was proved to me yesterday, when an article was posted through Yahoo! Education that listed the “Top 5 Degree’s that are Useless” classifying AGRICULTURE as the top useless major and it quickly became the catalyst to my newfound feeling of activism and enlightenment. I don’t know if it’s the recent SOPA/PIPA protests, the Occupy movement, constantly wishing I existed in the sixties or watching Across the Universe one too many times but I’m finally revisiting that long-lost proactive attitude.
As an Agribusiness and Food Marketing student under Cal Poly Pomona’s College of Agriculture, I was naturally appalled by this article AND its author and his highly questionable credibility, not to mention YAHOO! for even allowing it to be posted (which is totally rich considering Yahoo!’s decreasing capital which forced it to make itself available for purchase and on top of that, neither Google OR Apple wanting to buy Yahoo! because they had no use for it— um, “useless” much?). I could rant on about the thousand ways Agriculture has in no way lost its value and has been the most constant industry throughout all of humanity, being present through all historical periods and has been the basis of civilization, but simply put: What the actual fuck will humans eat without Agricultural Science? Not only that but Agricultural export is the primary source of economic revenue for many states, like CALIFORNIA. Why this so-called writer would even bother blogging or publishing this article astonishes me, especially when his only basis of reference was U.S. Labor statistics (which by the way, only includes statistics on FARM LABOR decline because of either immigration crackdowns or machine/technology efficiently eliminating the need for labor).
I am in no way partial to just Agriculture through bias, as I am a strong believer in education and believe that NO major is useless so long as there is passion driving someone’s curiosity and thirst for knowledge to devote their lives to a certain field. I stand for Fashion Design and Horticulture and every other college major listed on there. There is no such thing as a useless degree. It is bad enough that they are cutting funds, educators, courses and increasing tuition but it is another thing to degrade and devalue anyone’s degree. So to my generation: EDUCATE YOURSELVES. DON’T GET LOST IN ALL THIS MEDIA BULLSHIT AND PROPAGANDA. DON’T GIVE IN TO BIG MAJORS BECAUSE YOURE TOLD IT’S SUPERIOR. STAND UP FOR YOUR PASSION AND FIGHT FOR YOUR INDIVIDUALITY.
