Is Your College Degree Actually Worth Something?

I posted a blog a few weeks back titled Oh Job! Where Art Thou? where I discussed my personal take on finding employment in today’s market. (You can view that post by clicking the title on the side of the page). This post is sort of a follow-up. I found an article today detailing the top ten college majors you might regret. (I’ll post the link so you can view it). Once reading it, I wasn’t that surprised to see that Communication and Journalism are the top two. Seeing as I got both my degrees in journalism, I can definitely understand why this is. I will also admit that like many of you, I still find myself making grammatical errors. How could this be if you’ve spent x amount of years learning and gaining experience in a field you chose to study?

All in all, I’ve come to accept that unless I can produce some innovative material, work my ass off for x amount of hours maybe even years, and don’t mind getting paid next to nothing until I gain a significant amount of credibility, I will be finding work in a completely different field.

So there you have it. Click the link below and take a look at the article.
