“Speaking on a panel at the World Economic Forum, Mr. Rubenstein, the co-chairman of the private equity
firm, said American policy makers and educators have put too much of a
focus on the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics
at the expense of the study of literature, philosophy and other areas in
the humanities.”
“Humanities teach problem-solving skills that enable students to stand
out among their peers and to achieve success in the business world, Mr.
Rubenstein said. Career-specific skills can be learned later, he said,
noting that many of Wall Street’s top executives studied the humanities.”
