Got a variant of #4 and doing pretty good. :toast: I reckon that the degree itself isn't directly marketable, but I think it was totally worth doing.

Shit-I bet 75% of grads don't work in the field of their major. Regardless of your major, a degree is still a degree-and it opens up a lot of options that you otherwise wouldn't have.

poly sci and pre-law are worthless too. All you can do with them is go to grad school or law school, which you could do with any other degree as well.

Favorite part: "Having an English Lit degree is like being a member of the Kansas City Royals: No one cares and the best you can hope for is every once in a while someone buys you a beer because of it."

Seeing how college is so expensive these days, I didn't know there was a 'worthless' college degree.

it's not a marketable degree, but if someone truly has interest in the subject, they tend to do well in sales/marketing.

No offense, but I don't think you really need a degree to go into sales. It's all about good people skills and those can be developed by tending bar at a much cheaper price. If you're going to go into marketing you might as well get the marketing degree. An employer would take someone with a marketing degree over a sociology degree in a heart beat IMO.

Not doing shit with a journalism degree is actually a pretty good thing. Believe me, I know all too well. The paper I work at is the one of the few places I know of where everybody's in a bad mood on pay day.

Most BA degrees are pretty worthless unless they are specifically required in a particular field...These days to get a top job you need a Masters Degree.


Also, before the internet BA degrees were worth something because not many had them...But nowadays they are dime a dozen...and they lost a lot of their value because of all the online degrees that are being spit out by the shitloads each year.
