[quote=Anonymous]OP here again. Thanks for the replies! I’m still curious what math classes posters suggest DS take, because his college has a strong math department and I could suggest he take some
classes in it if it could help him in his job search or eventual mba apps, if he goes that route.

I suggested he take some more classes in the econ department, but he thinks that taking a few one-off econ courses isn’t going to help a job search, and he’d prefer to use the class slots to potentially bump his spanish or poli sci minor to a double major or something along those lines (he also wants to take more psych and philosophy classes- he’s really not interested in any business or econ related, although as posters have said, he needs a job!).

I do feel a little guilty for not forcing him to be more practical in his choice of major - I also went to a slac and to in a time when liberal arts majors were very sought after by all the investment banks and management training programs for anyone so inclined, so I didn’t think his major would matter as much as having a rich, engaged experience in a major of his choice.

Thanks again. [/quote]
