[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]30 years ago there was much less expectation and pressure to know what you wanted to do going in. People decided on majors later, internships after sophomore year were rare, everything was just pushed back a bit. There were always some kids who knew anyway but the expectation wasn’t there.[/quote] +1. WASP grad. 30 years ago, we were told that a liberal arts education prepares you for a wide range of jobs, that we can land something if we “pound the pavement” and find our calling along the way. And that oftentimes, we’ll end up in a line of work that has nothing to do with our major. I found that to be true of many classmates who didn’t come in with plans for med school, law school, etc.[/quote]
