{ the ability to navigate ambiguity }

I think this is one of the most important skills you get from the humanities. I have a friend who's a history professor. He's very used to hearing 20 different accounts of the same event told by different people, most of whom are self-serving if not outright lying, and working out what must actually have gone on, which looks like a strength to me.

He has a skill I'd like to have, but don't, and he got it from studying history, (and playing academic politics).
