How does that Art History major repay a $30K student loan when they can realistically only get a $30K a year salaried job?
Thinking about it from a different angle, how does a CS major repay a $30k student loan if they were under pressure to choose a lucrative major, hated programming to the point of never getting good at it, and couldn't conjure up the motivation to compete with the kids who were in it for fun?
In addition, for a lot of kids, a technical major isn't an option because they don't have the math background.
Now, do they major in art history anyway? That's a whole 'nother ball o' wax.
