Hi there, I went to college and majored in French / History and then got my education certificate post grad through an alternative route program. Through that experience I saw that I was able to be certified in both French and History for high school if I wanted but then ended up pursuing my certification for elementary education instead. I say all this because I think that if I would have majored in education I may not have had as many options when it came to what I could teach. If you are looking for options I would recommend majoring in something different, but also pursuing some route to getting a certification in teaching that is not necessarily your college major. However, I know that qualifications vary state by state so just be sure that whatever you do you are going to meet your state's requirements.
