I've become convinced that it helps the growth of critical thinking, (not mine unfortunately). Most of what Erin wanted to do in while in high school and college was to play her oboe. Her last two years at BU were almost free because she spent so much time playing for the school when needed at various performances and other student's recitals, (singers, etc.). Then reality set in and she realized that oboe job opportunities were not all that good... so she also took some courses in computer science and is still enjoying a great career the software industry.
