[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If what the proponents of a philosophy major are arguing is that there are other avenues for these individuals to pursue through grad school, med school, law school, etc you will have no argument from me. But if an undergrad with a philosophy major intends seeking a job with merely those credentials to his name, he will be at a distinct disadvantage compared with others who have a more marketable undergrad major.[/quote] Depends on the market. If I am hiring a compliance officer, I might want someone who understands ethics, not engineering. In reality, mid-career philosophy majors make more than accounting majors, microbiology majors, and even architecture majors, so maybe learning how to think isn't the economic disaster some falsely assume it is. http://www.payscale.com/college-salary-report-2014/majors-that-pay-you-back [/quote]
