[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yeah, don't major in anything that has you read a bunch of "books" and learn to "write" and get "smarter". What a waste of time! [b]That's why very few colleges offer English degrees. [/b] Better to learn some pre-professional trade because that's exactly what you will do the rest of your life. Studies show nearly 100% of people work in the field they get their degree in. [/quote] Almost every US college offers a degree in English. It's a cheap major for schools to offer. They need the English faculty to offer freshman composition and freshman literature, so it's not much to tack on a major course to their offerings. If they add a grad program in English, they can offer many sections of freshman comp/freshman lit at a low cost. [/quote] You have missed the class that covered sarcasm.[/quote]
