Do liberal arts & science colleges limit your career opportunities?

Absolutely not. Liberal arts means that you have to take cles in a wide range of topics so you can be well-rounded. You can get a career just as easily, if not easier then going through a trade school. Although it does sort of depend on your major; people with English majors have a difficult time regardless of where they come from. I am studying environmental economics at a liberal arts school and loving it. The small campus makes it easy to take cles in different departments for my requirements. I take some in poli sci, most in econ, and some in geo science. I never would have discovered economics if not for my liberal arts requirements, nor would I have gotten into science if they hadn't forced me to. They are not for everyone, but definitely don't just write off all liberal arts schools before giving them a chance.
