This is a good article... but it seems incomplete without mentioning the possibility of a graduate degree. After all, and english major with a 3.9 gpa and a 99% lsat might not be in a position to make much money now, but in three years he or she might very well be a lawyer earning twice what his library-dwelling engineering major roomate is earning.
Of course, engineering majors who go on to get law degrees are probably in even greater demand, as they still have a scare skill/knowledge base... Do problem sets on properties of materials prepare you for law exams as well as a semester spent trying to make sense of Ulysses? Actually, hard to say.
I don't know many humanities or social science majors who just plan to stop there. We need to track a bit further, especially if we're trying to gauge the prospects of the "best and brightest..."
