<p>"What exactly can i do with the degree. "</p>

<p>Sorry to burst your bubble…but I’m going to be honest with you. Some people might say that this major is similar to the case of majoring in something like History and Art History–and that it won’t really hurt you because you will receive proper training in grad school or on the job. But quite honestly a major like this will hurt you before you even reach that stage…The most that you can do with this degree is let potential employers know you’re black(and possibly a “militant” angry one) before they look up your address, call you or have an interview (if you are really that ambiguous)…And believe me, as much as SOME (emphasis on some) people will say your race is your saving grace on this site, trust and believe that revealing it in the job process does not help at all…it will probably hurt you…even Forbes did a study on this…something black people have been knowing for years.</p>

<p>You really need to figure out what your interested in because info tech to african american studies is sort of a jump…And no offense…but as an African American you can’t really afford to “explore” in college like some other students. That indecisiveness and “unfocusedness” will show on your transcript and give employers another reason to trash your qualifications…they will already question whether you deserved to enter the school you attended once they know your background</p>
