I have told some of you about my grandson, who wants to be a film editor.
I arranged for him to meet with the undergraduate adviser in the College of
Fine Arts at Carnegie Mellon.  Among other things that man told him that he
could get credit for certain courses at the Pittsburgh Filmmakers
Institute.  When my grandson visited the latter organization his reaction
was to ask what he needed Carnegie Mellon for.  I took this as lack of
appreciation for the value of a liberal education.  I find the linked
address by the President of Harvard to be relevant:
