That’s a tad cynical, @HappyAlumnus, but I get where you’re coming from. In my opinion, it is not only “good” but critical that your major involve reading [what major doesn’t?], writing, and critical analysis. It can be English lit; it can be rhetoric; it can be psychology or anthropology or biology. Grades are good for getting you into law school; grades in a lax major will not prepare you for success in law school or in a legal career.
