<p>You don’t have to major in something to take classes in or learn from it. I wanted to learn German, so I took the entire language sequence. No major. No minor. Just GEs and then electives (and trust me, I didn’t have a lot of open space to play around with). </p>
<p>You might get the most flexibility by finishing your English major, because then you’d have elective space to play with rather than eating up your remaining credits with required courses (of course, if the English major holds no appeal, then this is a poor suggestion). But it seems conceivable that you could finish your English major while also taking all of the philosophy courses that interest you, thus winding up with a Philosophy minor (and perhaps continuing your Chinese language courses as electives). I only suggest this because it sounds like flexibility would be helpful to you.</p>
<p>You’ll be “somewhat employable after college” with any of these degrees. Based on the English, Philosophy, and Econ majors that I know, your employability won’t vary too dramatically. It’s the curse of the liberal arts…“somewhat employable” is as good as it gets 
(only kidding).</p>
<p>Does your college offer a degree in Liberal Arts of in general Humanities? If so, it might let you blend a few of your interests. Likewise, some schools offer a PPE degree (Philosophy, Politics, & Economics). Ditto the possibility of self-designing a major, or obtaining a dual degree (“blending” English and Philosophy, so to speak, or any other combo). Any of this available to you?</p>
<p>I understand what it’s like to be so indecisive and also so overwhelmed by your own interests, and I know the frustration. It drives me crazy that I might have passed up my only chance to formally and seriously study so many fascinating topics! But that’s kind of the nature of college. After saying “talk to a counselor” and “do what you enjoy,” this isn’t a decision anyone else can make for you.</p>
