Insights from the humanities and alumni of its courses of study find their way into many professional domains. Education is basic to our society, teaching people to read and write, from the plain skills one learns in elementary school to more advanced skills in analysis and composition. Critical analysis of online sources, their rhetoric and their plausibility, is important for all citizens in our time. The humanities make people understand the world we live in, its history, languages, cultures, and places. Understanding others is of great importance in our world, in international relations, trade and tourism, but also at home, as we encounter persons who may have different experiences and convictions. Lack of cultural, historical, and linguistic competence and sensitivity may cost business. Not everyone needs to become a scholar in the humanities, but issues the humanities address are relevant everywhere, for us all, as citizens, as employees, and entrepreneurs, as humans.
