[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - major was English -- a beautiful major. The world needs more English majors.... especially from schools well known for their English & humanities departments. That should translate into many jobs in media, publishing, etc. And yes, with what we paid, no guarantees, but I would expect better assistance from the career center. The kid has worked so hard looking for a job and is not willing to be underemployed. I appreciate the tecchies, but not everyone is made to do that work. The world needs some fuzzies, too. More than ever actually. BTW - middle class burb family that has worked hard for it. [/quote] A job in media and publishing is just a smidgen above being unemployed. They pay very little, usually people from very comfortable circumstances can afford to go into those fields. Also, for publishing, one has to take the Radcliffe publishing seminar. There's no other way to get in.[/quote]
