[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]isn't "liberal arts degree = would you like some fries with that?"[/quote]

I went to a highly ranked liberal arts college.  My friends are all very, very professionally and financially successful.  My best friend majored in philosophy, started her own company, and has published two books.  She was quoted in the New York Times last month and has had articles written about her in major magazines. My friend who studied physics and French is the head of a private equity firm and has a second home in Maui and a boat. He is rolling in money. My chemistry major friend is a surgeon at the Mayo Clinic and my friend who was a geography major has her own architecture firm in Connecticut. My English major friend went to medical school and is a psychiatrist with a very successful private practice in NYC, and another English major friend is a financial reporter for a major news publication. Another English major friend has written for numerous network sitcom. Then there is the usual lineup of teachers, lawyers, consultants, policy wonks, and banking types. As far as I know, the only one who may be serving fries is the guy that opened his own restaurant. [/quote]
