[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of people here who are both rude and uninformed.  That's a very unattractive combination.

The job market remains white hot despite the stock market turbulence.  Good candidates with a good record of undergrad success are getting jobs.  Yes a CS major will have options a history major won't but both will get hired.

You "McDonald's!  Starbucks!" people are really pathetic and sad.  I wonder what made you that way?[/quote]

Because those people "would never allow their kids to major in Liberal arts/non-stem". They probably force their non-stem kids to attempt a stem major, and I can't imagine anything worse than forcing a kid into CS/Engineering that isn't interested.  I want my kid to be happy with life and what they do.  Same with pre-med; so many kids when I was in college that were afraid to tell their parents they really didn't want to be pre-med.  Cannot imagine going thru what it takes to be an MD if your heart isn't into it; way too much $$$ and years of schooling.  
Also cannot imagine the world without history/art history/English/psychology/drama/music majors.  We need people from all areas of knowledge.  While all of my kids chose something besides just liberal arts, we would have been happy with whatever makes them happy, with the caveat that for some majors you have to work a bit harder "to find the right job" and that means starting that process earlier during college (ie before senior year).  It means searching for some type of internship during college to gain experience.   There are not lots of job descriptions that advertise for "we need a history major", so you have to make more of an effort to decide what area you want to explore and learn to market yourself a bit more.   A CS/Engineer doesn't have to do that quite so much.  [/quote]
