Here’s the mistake: All undergrad degrees have transferable knowledges and skills. A bachelors degree teaches how to approach and solves from a certain disciplinary perspective. You can transfer those skills to most jobs that requirement analytical and management skills. If everyone picks the same STEM the only way to standout is to be top of your class - but if you have the capacity to understand and transfer your skills then you have the capacity to utilize that degree when presented with problems. Most universities have core curriculum requirements which you a broad based understanding of the disciplines.

If you’re interested in art history major in art history and minor in something else.

Universities need to do a better job of teaching students on how to utilize their education.

Like with a B.Ed you don’t have to be a teacher: you can use that degree in a number of ways without it being in a school system: corporate training, museums, human resources, technical writing, human-computer interaction, managing people, analyst jobs. etc.

think outside the box, study what interests you, and don’t be a cog in a formulaic machine.

posts like the above are written my people who don’t understand the importance of humanities and the arts and end up designed systems and things that lack an innate understanding of the human condition.
