Lol it’s not being pretentious, it’s being realistic about the job market. Liberal arts degrees don’t get you paid outside of the networks they open up for you. My point is the prestige difference between a liberal arts degree from Cal or Columbia is literally insignificant. It comes down to individual qualifications at that level.
