How does art history lead to investment banking? This is not a snark comment. I'm genuinely curious as that would not be my expectation (though I know little about either as a career and college major). [/quote]

Search for an old post on here about anthropology at Dartmouth as a very popular “gateway” major to investment banking and Wall Street.[/quote]

Yet.  Lots of Dartmouth anthro majors making bank.[/quote]

This is some strange urban myth…I guarantee you there are more Dartmouth Econ, Math and other quantitative majors making bank over anthro majors.[/quote]

Part 1:Yet. Lots of Dartmouth anthro majors making bank
Part 2:This is some strange urban myth…I guarantee you there are more Dartmouth Econ, Math and other quantitative majors making bank over anthro majors.
