I'm so sick of the elitism in the sciences. I'm tired of hearing people look down on other disciplines.

It's kind of funny - I do history and my best friend is finishing her master's in archaeology. Archaeology is apparently FULL of this elitism. Despite theoretically incorporating both "history" and "science", apparently the elite archaeologists turn their nose up at history disciplines. It's the weirdest thing to me.

This is not just how archaeology works. This is how psychology works between the arts side and the science side.

Well, I could see how psychology has to battle with pseudoscience all the time, and that could create a resentment toward anything not seen as "sciencey" enough. Flaky "inkblot", "tell me about your dreams" Freudian and holistic, homeopathic shit vs actual science supported psychological techniques. Could kind of understand why the psychology field is so defensive about the sciences.

Well, these days neuroscience is starting to branch off as its own thing (a biological science), but yes. It's really infuriating to have a bunch of people going LOL PYSCHOLOGY ISN'T A HARD SCIENCE when you've taken one of the most intensive science degrees available at your university lol.

...It just happens to be associated with the psychology department.

Speaking as an archaeologist, when I was in grad school, the cultural anthropologists always used to look down their nose at the archeologists and were really hostile towards science, so it wouldn't surprise me if some archaeologists take a reactionary attitude. Also, it doesn't help when people think what you're doing isn't ever real science because you're lumped in with anthropology.

Also, I see a continuity between archaeology and history because there's no real break in the past, it's just that people started writing things down, or we picked an arbitrary dividing line between "ancient" and "not ancient," or we pretended like everything started over anew when white people showed up somewhere. I have to deal with whatever I come across, which can include sites recent enough to show up in historical records. Checking old maps is standard practice. Plus, sometimes when the ancient past was all mangled to hell by the recent past, the only record you have of the ancient past is historical documents from the recent past.

There is elitism throughout academia. Many people there are very egotistical and arrogant
