[quote=Anonymous]I don't know how you define gunner. If he wants to work at a hedge fund or banking or consulting as a history major, he will have to be a "gunner" in order to get those jobs. Honestly, hedge fund is likely off the table since they want kids that can do advanced Math...so unless your kid is double-majoring in Math, probably not an option. If your kid wants to get a PhD at the most prestigious grad programs (and get a stipend), he will have to be gunner but in a different way from the career gunners. The kids that aren't gunners are the kids that become fodder for DCUM...complain about how they went to Princeton or Harvard but didn't amount to much. Unless your kid comes from family money / connections, you won't get many stories of how the plum job or grad program just fell into the kid's lap because they attended Yale.[/quote]
