I know what you ar saying but as I tell my students, it doesn’t matter what your major is. You are your won employer. If you can’t create value for others, the best degree in the world won”t help.

Your comments remind me of a situation years ago when I was out of college a few years and working for an international product company. One day I was called into the office of my boss for job/career evaluation. I was asked what I thought was a reasonable goal as to helping the company. I was a chemical engineer working on product development. After a few moments of thought I told my boss that I thought it was a fair deal that I should give the company a 2 for 1 return on their investment in me. The boss was taken back because I believe he had never looked at employment in such a simple framework.
