An unofficial article

Allegations that McMaster’s Honours Health Science Program is really just “a liberal arts program in a lab coat” have surfaced lately as first year students discover the amount of writing and reflecting required for this Bachelor’s of Health Science degree. In an unofficial statement to the unofficial press, an unofficial representative from the school says (paraphrased), “[yeah its meant to be interdisciplinary]”.

Parents everywhere have also been deceived by flashy medical school admissions numbers for graduates of the program and its so-called Bachelor of Health “Science” designation, only for their child to return home for the holidays, having taken, like, 3 science courses max and one midterm, but written thousands of words of reflection. 

Former self-proclaimed STEM students are not sure what to do with themselves, other than to take the once glorious calculus and physics as measly electives, and cry during inquiry. They are pretty sure they peaked in high school.
