My parents were both history majors. They are now both successful lawyers and are quite well off (I don’t know specific stats, but we don’t qualify for financial aid). I don’t think it’s about the degree - I think it’s about the intellectual caliber of the person who receives the degree. Does English attract a higher percentage of slackers than engineering? Almost certainly. I believe that is the reason for the wage disparity.
