Why are general ed classes in college required regardless of your major?
Permalink   
 


Unless I have a misunderstanding about college, I thought college was when you took specialized classes that suit your desired major. I understand taking general ed classes throughout high school, everyone should have that level of knowledge of the core classes, but why are they a requirement in college? For example, I want to major in 3D Animation, so why do I need 50 credits worth of Math, English, History, and Science classes?

This isn't so much complaining about needing to take general ed as it is genuine curiosity.
