The sentiment that the expense of attaining a four-year college degree, particularly at a private school, isn’t
worth the outcome is certainly growing. But we need to remember that a college degree has benefits that last a
lifetime. According to a report by The College Board, college graduates earn roughly 73 percent more than high
school graduates, and those with advanced degrees earn two to three times as much as high school graduates. On
average, college graduates earn $1 million more over their lifetimes than high school graduates. A recent study by
the Brookings Institution further shows that college graduates ultimately lead healthier, longer lives. So while the
cost of a college degree is not trivial, the benefits that graduates realize over their lifetimes are well worth the
initial investment. Many people also think that liberal arts graduates are not desirable employees in today’s marketplace. The fact
is that liberal arts graduates are highly desired by employers. While it may seem unreasonable that a broad-based
education can be more beneficial than a skills-based one, it actually makes much sense. The core outcomes of a
liberal arts education—the ability to think critically and creatively, work collaboratively, communicate clearly,
adapt to new technologies, and navigate today’s global economy—are not only desired by today’s top employers,
but also provide students with the skills they need to adapt to an ever-changing world. Today’s graduates may have
two or more different career paths during their lifetime, which makes a broad-based education even more
beneficial.
Companies in the technology industry are aware of the benefits of a liberal arts degree. Google often advertises
its appreciation for employees who can think creatively and adapt to evolving technologies, and Microsoft
president Brad Smith and EVP of AI and Research Harry Shum wrote in their book that lessons from liberal arts
will be critical to releasing the full potential of AI (artificial intelligence). 【題組】36. What is the passage mainly about?

(A) To show that people with college degrees make more money
(B) To prove that skills-based education is better than broad-based education
(C) To illustrate the value of a liberal arts degree
