In my graduating class for undergrad, there were like 3x as many journalism majors as there were CS majors. And it wasn't a particularly good journalism school either. Same for other majors like sports medicine, political science, etc
I don't really get it tbh. Why even bother paying for college if you're just going to major in BS?

- IG_Semmelweiss 3y agoThere is clearly a difference between a 200k degree in journalism and a 10k boot camp diploma or degree in CS It seems you could learn more, have a lot more fun, and make many more friends, if you pocketed the 190k and used the money for 4 years of debauchery around the world.
- the_only_law 3y agoMy sister quickly dropped out of getting an English degree. She just had no realistic idea or plans for what to do after HS, and college was pushed as the thing to do. When I was in HS, councilors looked at me like I was an idiot when I said I didn’t want to go to college after HS (admittedly I regret it, but didn’t affect my “success”)
