You didn't ask me but as someone with a degree in government that ran a college newspaper, if you want to be a writer, you should not major in any of that journalism / English stuff, but you should take enough classes to network around that world.
Also, you certainly didn't ask my dearly departed management professor, but when I was roaming the campus with the largest undergraduate enrollment in the states, he pointed out that we minted something like 1000 psychology degrees a year and something like 300 management degrees in a year, but only like 5 double majors in psychology AND management. He argued it was the union and crossover that made really interesting, specialized and in demand folks the world needs.
Or just get the fuck out of there as soon as you can.
Colbs you are hysterical. I absolutely picked the wrong major! No practicality to anything I’m studying and I’m too deep into things to switch into something else. Honestly there isn’t a lot of variety in terms of programs here! If there was I’d totally do it. So basically I see this whole degree thing as a means to an end. With the “end” being a fancy piece of paper that means zilch to the workforce. I am so screwed
I wouldn't say it means zilch. There is still some value to the certification.
And I can honestly tell you about 5 things I learned in a classroom that pertained to the subject matter. But my five years at college were crucial to who I am today. Just being around different types of people were instrumental.
It's easy to bag on college. Here it's way too expensive and way too easy to walk out with a sociology kinesiology degree.
But somewhere in there you meet your first gay or muslim or transgender or veteran and have to work on a project with them and ... you've just learned more than the cause of the English civil war.

Or stay there as long as you possibly can.
Pretty sure I just nailed it.
