By Tucker Warren —

In a speech at a higher education conference, Governor Matt Bevin suggested Kentucky universities should consider making cuts to their arts departments. Bevin said many of these programs are “not helping to produce that 21st century educated workforce.”

He went as far as to say the buildings used for these programs were not “assets of any value.”

That’s comical, considering Bevin has a Bachelor’s of Arts Degree in East-Asian Studies.
