College major and career advice

With respect to selection of a college major, Hamilton College’s site offers general advice:

"Since law schools do not require applicants to pursue a specific curriculum, students from virtually every concentration at the college have gone on to study law. . . .

“Acquiring a broad-based liberal arts education will satisfy the kind of curricular background law schools seek, but students may wish to take courses which emphasize the development of skills in communication, both written and oral, and logical analysis as well as law-related courses.”
