[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I thought I knew what I wanted to do when I went to college. It wasn’t until I took a gen ed course in a completely different discipline that I realized what I really wanted to do.[/quote] +1 Well-chosen gen-ed classes are a lifesaver for students who discover they’ve started in the wrong major. [/quote] These gen ed classes are almost never in fields where an undergrad degree is employable. An introductory programming course, for example, would be a far more valuab lifesaver than, say, a philosophy course that seduces students into a poorly-paid career (or lack thereof), yet the former is far rarer as a gen ed than the latter.[/quote]
