Well see there is another opinion.

You’ll get responses like these two from everyone.

Some people will say “let her follow her dreams and major in what she wants” and others will say “tell her to major in something practical.” I am obviously the 2nd type.

Has her mom sent anyone through college? If not she may be thinking like the first type I described and I think that’s old school. With rising tuition costs college has become a HUGE investment. One that many people are starting to say is not worth it (especially in this economy). If I am going to spend tens of thousands of dollars I better be assured that I get a good return. I don’t see that degree as a good investment at all. It just has no fallback. An accounting major who dreams of the big 4 can fall back on a wide array of jobs if they don’t get one of those jobs.

I guess my overall point is that I don’t see any ADVANTAGE to the degree.
