More interesting than major is quality. Is an Art History degree from a rural commuter school interesting? Probably not. Is a Philosophy degree from Harvard interesting? I'd say so.
- akhilcacharya 11y agoYup. Prestige is more important than a lot of people like to admit.
- Matachines 11y agoI'll go as far as to say that when it comes to degrees like Art History, prestige (i.e. reputation of the school's department) is what matters the most. That way, you will get to do the interesting research and make the necessary connections to advance your career.
- akhilcacharya 11y agoCorrect, but if it works for art history, it should also work for other degrees that more directly translate into career paths, no?
