[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC is a junior at Williams, and it is shocking to see how many peers are majoring in Economics. I understand the cost of college has soured, but how does economics, at all, give you any skills needed for jobs? And if anyone can enter business careers, what's the point of business majors? It just seems very confusing. [/quote] What is the purpose of college? There are many. Some think it is to get a job. Real purpose of college is to train and grow the mind. Job is less important. From Williams you could be almost any major and with solid grades be fine in almost any field. [/quote] Williams parent here. If you paid $90k a year for Williams you for damn sure think a job is VERY VERY important after graduation. [/quote]
