Ethnomusicologists are employed in the fields of publishing, museum administration, education, computer technology, and in government, as well as university teaching. It's quite an interesting field.<br />Mary Natvig<br />BGSU Professor of MusicologyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17854841615047776697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464118637332646489.post-40971186058608970972010-02-01T11:12:43.786-08:002010-02-01T11:12:43.786-08:00Thank you sir for your insightful and perspicaciou...Thank you sir for your insightful and perspicacious remarks on this blight on the world. Why stop here though? Philosophy, art, art history, music in general, performance, literature - all of these are worthless. After all, worth is determined by money generated right? That's why I'm not going to have children. They are just a bad investment. They come in and eat your food, take your money when they want clothes and shelter and a college education. Whoops - I meant to say trade school. Worthless offspring.Benjamin Downshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05129429579725903907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464118637332646489.post-69868917038016746572010-02-01T09:13:44.034-08:002010-02-01T09:13:44.034-08:00Is the goal of education really to make money?

Heck, why bother having human pleasure or intelligence when you could be OUT GETTING MORE MONEY? I mean, isn't that the point of life? Didn't the Big Bang merely occur so that we could have a universe to get rich in? <br /><br />I'm so glad you're alive and sharing your opinions with the world.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5464118637332646489.post-69593580183432416802010-02-01T06:25:14.918-08:002010-02-01T06:25:14.918-08:00Wow.
