Anyone notice what these “non-professional” degrees have in common?
Nursing
Physician assistants
Physical therapists
Audiologists
Architects
Accountants
Educators
Social workers
Here’s a hint, look at the two least obvious ones:
43% of new architects are women:

And 60% of all accountants:

This is clearly a plan to minimize career paths for women.
Edit What the heck, lets check the rest of them…
92% of audiologists are women:

88.8% of nurses:

First of all aren’t audiologists doctors? Also where I live architects are considered engineers and saying engineering and medicine are non-professional is so absurd to me.
Also if people working in these professions could coordinate and organise a nationwide strike it would literally halt the entire economy.
Today I saw the new Wicked movie. Afterwards, as I usually do after a movie, I went to the bathroom and checked my phone to see if Trump was dead yet. If he died, I was going to yell “ding dong the witch is dead”, then I was going to come out of the stall and tell everyone in the bathroom that Trump was dead, then I was gonna play “no one mourns the wicked” on my phone
At this point whatever Trump dies of is suicide.
Fuck that I want to celebrate the hero that ends this psycho shit
I sure hope it’s the kind of suicide somw people commit by shooting themselves 3 times in the back of the head
And then falling down an elevator shaft. Onto some bullets.
Who gives a flying fuck what this “man” or this regime says. He’s a traitorous bastard that should be dragged out of office and hung from the neck.
This is exactly what our mess of a health care system needs … fewer nurses. This is exactly what our uneducated voter population needs … fewer educators. The downward spiral never ends.
As the boomers reach EOL… fewer nurses.
What’s the consequences of this for those in those careers?
FTA:
“This means that those doing high-costing degrees, who may no longer receive the same amount as their degree may not be deemed “professional,” could financially struggle to cover the costs—which could deter students from choosing to pursue those high-demand careers.”
It has also been reported that engineering, a business master’s, counseling or therapy, and speech pathology will not be considered “professional” either.
Engineering is not professional? What a laughable sack of shit. We’re going to have a lot of work ahead to undo this damage.
I look forward to improving our systems better than they’d previously been when trump and project 2025 showed up.
Of course he thinks educators aren’t a professional degree. Fucker cannot read bigly! Even if we don’t have gud ejukaters nothing bad can happen, it can only good happen. Slavery and bible is frend.
Audiologists? What do they have against people being able to hear? This isn’t a full list, right? Are ENTs not considered professionals too? Tell me dentists are also excluded. Optometrist? Is it really just this one specific doctor? I mean nurses are important, but I’ll admit that society does not respect them, or other non doctor medical professionals, as much. The only word I could think of to describe them in the last sentence was professional.

Honestly this seems correlative and not causal.
Until you look at all the other occupations. Updated the list.
Oh they have beef with the deaf and I don’t know why.
Is POTUS on that list?
“It has also been reported that engineering, a business master’s, counseling or therapy, and speech pathology will not be considered “professional” either.“
Well, AI can do the job of an engineer - they are just code monkeys. (sarcasm)
But the one I like the best - business masters. Stick it to the CEOs and corporate execs. According to Sundar Pichai, AI can do that job too! Karma.
When will we be able to exit the world of stupid?
Engineer here:
If I could get AI to put up with a client/architect’s bullshit I’d vibe code my way to a life without meetings that could have been emails.
Here is what is funny for me. I worked in public education for almost 30 years. All that time the state of North Carolina did not let me join a union but I could join a professional organization like NCAE. So now I am not a professional so can teachers join a union now? And after reading the article I see that it will be shutting people out of getting these degrees because they have to take out loans for graduate school and post graduate work. So basically those who are in the middle of studies right now can expect to be left high and dry next fall.
43% of new architects are women
I see you writing “57% are not women”, and I understand people choose their own path.
This is clearly a plan to minimize career paths for women.
At 43%? It seems like a plan to minimize THAT career path for all humans, with a mix that trends male slightly.
Is 43% still less than half?
You picked the one with the lowest percent. What I think is bizarre is that in every single instance of the jobs listed professional licensure is necessary to practice. How can you need a degree and a professional license and the degree not be considered professional? It makes zero sense. It seems pretty clear to me that there is an ulterior motive, with the most reasonable view within the context of this administration and the disproportionate impact on women is that it’s calculated to punish women.
Read the link:
“Over the past 5 years, gender representation has increased from 38% to 43% for women in the new architect population.”
That occupation is a growth category for women.
Great, it’s already a pain getting a decent audiologist…
