[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My "double" B.A.s in history and psych were as worthless to me in 1979 as they are to any student today, but even more so. Can't get a job off a BA in history and psych. It was only law school that saved me. So I agree with OP's friend: [b]my children are going to get useful degrees (but, yes 4 year, with all the liberal arts crap) in technology and computers, and fluency in a desirable language, so they can get a job when they graduate.[/b] And if they are fortunate enough (and can finance it), then I'm all for grad school of any type except a D.Phil. which gets yo nothing but a chance at returning to college to be a professor.[/quote] I know someone who had decided that his future children would all major in engineering because he and his wife were not going to pay for useless degrees. Future dad is a patent attorney and future mom is fluent in another language. Oh, and they had the colleges all picked out too.[/quote]
