Applied math, actuarial science, Data analytics/Data science, CS, Economics, all provide good professional paths out of college.
You could major in something “practical” that will hep you find a job, and minor in Economics. Doesn’t CAS require 2 social science classes anyway, ie., Economics, Sociology, or Psychology? Since Sociology isnt for you, it means you have to take at least one Economics class because your college requires it, right? After that, just pick and choose classes you like. Majoring in something with an Econ minor is possible to achieve in 6 semesters. For finance, math/stats/Applied math (etc) majors are as useful as Finance. That could be a way for you to get to a Finance job without declaring a Finance major.

Note that your father’s belief was true about 50 years ago but for the past 20-25 years, such behavior as asking for sexual favors from female employees or even making crude sexual jokes is considered a firable offense (and in the case of asking for sexual favors, a crime punishable by law and one where the man’s word does NOT have more power than the woman’s, since it’s really considered beyond the pale to behave in such a manner.) In short, even if there are male employees or employers who may be tempted to behave like this, the consequences are such that it’s become extremely rare and no longer “par for the course”. MadMen 2015 it isn’t.
In keeping with TV shows, if your father thinks hospitals are better than the corporate world, then he clearly doesn’t watch Grey’ Anatomy. (just kidding - GA is NOT a documentary, it’s a soap!)
