[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you pair it with a Statistics or data science major, you’re golden. If you pair it with something like Psychology or History, it’s worthless. [/quote]

Is it totally worthless though?  Obviously, you wouldn't get the same jobs as a Computer Science major, but I figure you could get some sort of job.  I don't think it would be as worthless as a Psychology or History degree alone. [/quote]

I am going  to post this every time someone spouts nonsense about useless LA degrees.

I just don't understand what people like to repeat unsubstantiated and untrue claims all the time as fact[/quote]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.  I've seen these sorts of articles before and they are all BS or targeted for the crowd that attends a top 20 school.  My Sociology degree didn't do S*** for me.  I worked crap jobs for seven years until I went back and got a more practical masters.  And yes, I know plenty of others who ended up in the same boat.  Granted, I graduated during a lousy job market, but still. [/quote]
