Professor Roy Weintraub said: 
 
"... All that said, perhaps some still would wish that students be able to freely write on
any subject of their choice. That kind of educational system is not characteristic of any
Ph.D. program in any field of which I am aware. The reason we have "thesis committees" and
"thesis proposals" and "thesis defenses" is to fulfill our obligations to scholarship, not
freedom of belief."
 
If I am not reading you incorrectly, would this not lock economics into one specific path
which would eventually make her a victim of undesirable and underachieving
intellectualism?
