[quote=Freeman][quote=Anonymous]What you make when you enter the job market and where you end up are entirely different things. Remember that loads of CEO's have liberal arts degrees. Slow and steady can win the race.[/quote] Many CEOs don't have college degrees at all, and I doubt any of them started with a degree in "CEO Management". However, you can't really derive anything useful from statistical outliers such as Gates or Zuckerberg, as well as most CEOs, in terms of college decisions. I think many people would find it useful though, if comparing two degrees, to see that for one degree and school, graduates had 90% employment with an average starting salary of $50k, while another degree and school had only a 70% employment rate and average starting salary of $30k. The point is to ensure that students have realistic expectations on what to expect after they graduate, not what they can expect 20 years down the road.[/quote]
