   I think I would cave under the immense pressure of story-telling to children.

   So THAT’s what you can do with a Humanities degree! Interesting…

   ..and what story would he be telling if he had a Philosophy degree?

   I’m with dgriff13 - pretty sure I’d wind up stealing ideas from completely unrelated movies. And TV ads. It would not be the sort of thing that would work in print (or anywhere else, really)!

   No way! A useful degree?! Maybe that’s the story.

   John: A person needs to feel useful!
   George: Accumulate enough and you’ll have a handsome wall covering…
   Bearman: When they’re not rumbling with the English, Philosophy, and History majors about who’s most irrelevant.
   dgriff13: It helps that audience expectations are very low
   DadaHyena: Only things that would cause Sprout nightmares…
   SpilledInk: It works for Hollywood!
   speearr: For me, the most educational parts of college were the “life lessons.” I don’t think I’m alone.
