This. STEM subjects are a vital part of a well-rounded education, but they are only a part.Speaking as someone with several "STEM" degrees, that's a rather myopic view of what should be taught in school. STEM subjects are important, but so are subjects like English and history. These subjects also help develop critical thinking, writing, and communication skills. And there is the secondary benefit of these subjects enriching our lives while exploring the human condition. STEM isn't the be-all-end-all some people like to claim it is.
