I agree, a "Do what you like" degree choice is just dumb. Philosophy, art, etc. shouldnt be majors anymore. Seriously, if you're not in engineering/architecture , a technology field, or a business degree... What's the point? We have fire training here at my college, that's pretty relevant but until a fire fighter becomes a salaried position and not volunteered I don't see it being worth it.
I switched from Computer Science to MSIS, due to being mathematically stupid. I'm still in a tech field that's every expanding but it's still slim. I imagine I'll be working convenience store/management spots for a while before my degree kicks in.
