<p>Yeah, it’s all relative, sakky. But what about the goals of a rhetoric vs. a business major? Do you think there’s anything we can do to imagine who’s more interested in money, who’s less interested, ect? Do you think this matters at all? If some business major went into the business world wanting to make all the money in the world, and made say 50k to start, and some rhetoric major went out into the world not as concerned about money, choosing to do something low-paying over a job with a hire wage, doesn’t that matter? Are we dealing with correlation, or causation? I think the statistics we are dealing with only give so much information. Sure, people would generally rather make more money over less money, this is usually the case, of course, but I couldn’t imagine some business and engineering majors I know even considering less money for something they like a little more. I heard one engineering major who works as a businessman and will go into business ask a friend what in the world she’s thinking volunteering her time for free. Work without any pay? Absurd to him!</p>
