Women's Studies

any at all

Women's studies.
Not even a meme.
I fucking love women and women's rights, but women's studies is a load of nothing but information on being a relatively good person... doesn't apply helpful information for building shit or advancing civilisation.

Art degree

film degree here, my parents are proud /s

feministic theology

my religion teacher studied that and she was insane.

and its YOUR FAULT she can't get a job!

Depends. I am finishing off my engineering degree but I can see the necessity in an art degree. Pretty much every product and advertisement that you use and see has had some artistic input.

Any art degree. Learn a trade boys. With a trade start at $20 top around $35-45 easy.

Any social science degree with 'Studies' in its name. Lifetime earning for Black Studies and Women's Studies degree holders are actually lower than lifetime earning for people who graduate high school but don't go to college at all.

>Any social science degree with 'Studies' in its name.
I want a degree in Studies Studies. My thesis will be a comparative examination of the value of Studies degrees in the job market, with a minor in SJW retirement planning.

Not even close.

In general (and in no particular order) top 5 worthess:
1) Business Administration/Management (you paid how much to learn what they would have taught you if you had a different degree). Seriously, an undergrad degree in this is toilet paper.
2) Communications (I have met people working the same minimum wage jobs they had in college after graduation)
3) Gender Studies
4) Pre-law. The degree is worthless in itself. The job market for lawyers is shit (has been for more than a decade). Take a major that is actually worth something on its own, but which will still prepare you for the LSAT if you still think you might want to be a lawyer.
5) Religious studies. Assuming you aren't trying to go to a seminary, it is professional fairy tale studies. You can speak with the exact same authority if you major in literature and minor in history. More authority actually since the history departments aren't as beholden to the dogmas as theologians are.

pick one quick, your inner cuck is rearing its ugly neckbearded head

Real question worst college. I think Ashworth. Anyone ever done Penn Foster?

Library science.

Most degrees you can get by in academia, sorta. Even "[X] Studies" can get you places with academic types, social work, maybe NGOs or community organizers. But library science? Yeah, you're pretty much boned.

Some degree fields empty out into a job market that's fairly saturated. Yeah, there's a lot of people majoring in the fine arts who aren't actually very good at it and are probably gonna be living with their parents. True, you might not be able to do much with just a foreign language (e.g. majoring in Spanish) but it's an excellent double major (choose something employable, and the language is like a salary multiplier).

Library science is a whole 'nother category.

To start off, you need to hit master's degree level if you want to get anywhere. There aren't very many undergraduate degrees, bachelor's or equivalent, in the field, although interested undergrads can certainly find all sorts of related things to do if they're really driven. But then, once you get through school, you realize that every library job has already been taken. There are tons of libraries in the United States alone, but each one already has a librarian. They might need someone to help out part-time shelving books or something, but that job doesn't even need a high school education, just basic literacy.

So, basically, you're waiting around for someone to die so that you might have a chance to take their position, and in the meantime hopefully you're doing something to get experience so that you've got a chance at getting in once that job actually opens. In the meantime, you could go back to school (your student loans, if they exist, are only growing) and specialize in something that's broad enough to get you into an archive or a research institution, although even then your chances are pretty low.

Don't major in library science. I didn't, but there's apparently some people who do, and that's just sad.

people who solely go for communications is retarded, it's useful as an important module for other courses albeit

Nobody is dealing with your shit. You are going to be fucked in the ass with a cheese grater lubed up with ghost chili pepper sauce and fucking Australian bull ants whilst I affix to my right index finger an unwashed steak knife from a local mexican restaurant and proceed to rub your crusty fucking clit with it and using my left hand to grope your fucking titty with a god damned taser. Once I get bored with that Ill spin you the fuck around and fuck your dirty cunt with an 80-grit sandpaper condom I made at the fucking home depot that I have covered with fucking bees. I'll thrust my boney ass pelvis into your soggy fucking kidneys on top of a god damned Tibetan nail bed as I lick the tears of shame and agony out of your motherfucking eye balls. Your utter agony will be a thing of legend as I pull out my dick and slit your throat with a fucking plastic spork so I can jizz down your god damned throat hole as I dump chlorine bleach into your nostrils on your now flailing head. All of this whilst I live webcast this shit directly to your parents, the pope, and fox news for all to witness and enjoy and just as you gurgle your last breathe as it bubbles through your cum clogged trachea I'll take a massive pabst blue ribbon dump in your mouth.

Do something better than waste our time reading this autistic diarrhea. Not even copypasta worthy.

Do post-undergrad institutions count? Then I nominate Thomas M. Cooley Law School, which is now affiliated with Western Michigan University but which still has terrible stats all around. About 50% of its graduates successfully pass the bar exam.

Notable alumni include Michael Cohen, who is the personal lawyer of Donald Trump.

Sure some people need to got get a master's or above. What's bad if people think they must get a 4 year degree to get a great job and that's sad. But maybe someday people will wake up.

Don't worry, user, I believe in you. Although you've got to be good to go anywhere with a film degree. Anybody who's mediocre ends up being basically irrelevant. Try to network and don't die.

Got a bachelors in the arts, major is psychology and a certificate in digital media. I'm going to take IT courses for free at a non profit organization that also provide job placement after you get your A+. Gonna see if I can get somewhere in life before I call it quits.

Actually, this, even by it's own vision and design it contains little more than moralizing and instructions on how to make the case for moralizing everything. It admits to itself that it's an end to itself to liberalize the world. It knows it's not providing value to the student and doesn't care because it genuinely believes, and outright professes, that changing the world is more important.

I also think it knows that it doesn't matter if the people who get it fail because they'll mostly be white women and the success of white people at the very least doesn't matter and at the very most should be outright prevented.

idk it's like having a racism degree in an increasingly racist country, women's studies is basically signing up to the socialist party early so after the revolution you get to be an official and eat food, reproduce, own land aka the things 95% of communist citizens never get to do by design

My sisters degree is in general studies

A friend of mine has that very same degree. He works as a floor captain in a catering hall. He's saving his money so he can make a short film. He's getting people involved.

I think it's awesome, user, but only if you have a plan or ideas for film making.

thanks Sup Forumsro, and true that, Most people either start their own production companies or try get work for bigger production houses, both seem impossible

Oh man. Associate's degree? I don't know of any bachelor's degree institutions that grant a bachelor's in general studies.

Getting through a community college with one of those is okay if you're going on to a state school, for example. Maybe it'd let you transfer over and skip the general studies requirements which are present at most colleges.

Massachusetts school of law Andover has a 43% bar exam pass rate

I love women and I like them because I've had sex with lots of them.

Bachelors. She did that whole "undecided, I'll figure it out later" and never figured it out

Sociology

Oh man. Well, there's the possibility she can pull something together in an interdisciplinary field, or get professional certificates, or something. Though I guess you already know that.

That's crazy. Just looked up that school and they really don't sound like a great place to learn law.

Have a theatre arts degree, feels bad man.

art is a huge field

anything that isnt science, engineering or law is basically categorized as art, for example teachers and all languages are art degrees
on top of that, design defines what you see, touch, feel, buy. Design really shapes the raw structure that the sciences and engineering achieve into products that people actually use. Most of our culture, film, literature, etc. that people consume day in day out only exists because art is recognized as a fundamental pillar of civilization.

The one you can't pay off in ten years.

Gender studies

She's still working it out. Step one should be to move out of the Middle of nowhere college town she's in to somewhere that has jobs that offer her more than 12 hours a week

Individuals and groups from diverse sub-cultures, ethnicities, histories, genders and generations make meaning in the context of significant spaces. These spaces can be private or public, idiosyncratic or monumental. This unit will give opportunity for students to investigate a range of specific private, public, contested and heritage-recognised sites. It will also introduce students to a range of practical and theoretical skills for reading the processes of meaning-making in such sites. Preceding from semester one of cultural studies, the approach will be inter-disciplinary and will combine individual responses to sites with guided reading from amongst history, semiotics, gender studies, architecture and technology.

THIS IS A REAL THING. I DID NOT MAKE THIS UP.

Liberal arts and Gender studies. Pretty much anything not in the STEM fields.

A unique hole from decades ago: Social Science Multidisciplinary. We called 'Advanced No-Pref". I doubt it still exists.

degrees are usueless if you dont network

His whole post is explaining why it's the worst. You retarded inbred uneducated whore.

networking is useless if you network with tards.

I have a music degree and made 115k last year.

I love women, and that's why I pay them 40 dollars to have sex with me for money and I would never dream of hitting a woman until the second she decides to chomp down on my tongue , then I start wailing away , I got to to something to free my face and get out of that van.

or as i like to call it
Niggerology

the best is what you think you will most, out of everything ever, enjoy making money doing at the top of your field

The delusion is strong in this faggot, enjoy flipping burgers for a living faggot

a man of jesus chatline culture i see

A Psychology undergraduate degree by itself is fucking useless. The only good thing you can use it for is to get into graduate and/or doctoral programs. I can't believe the number of people in my school who think an undergrad psychology degree is good enough.

Any stem field, get into cyber security or Network administration. I quit school my first year and came back 6 years later. I have all A's and B's. Shit isn't even that hard, there are protocols to follow and it's mostly hands on.

This. Also, a philosophy degree is worthless. You can teach philosophy and... that's about it.

>feministic theology
what the actual fuck?

Library science can also lead to positions in knowledge management, information architecture, and related careers defining and implementing taxonomies and ontologies for Fortune 500 companies.

how does quitting your job and coming back to it 6 years later add anything (positive) to your point?

Apparently, philosophy majors do really well on the LSAT. Something like the highest scores, I think.

It all depends on where you go with them. Some bachelor's degrees are a dead end if you just stop there.

like?

i have a degree in multimedia. i just wanted to learn how to use photoshop. i wish i did some research for it though...i didn't know i was going to need a portfolio have a portfolio online.

True, but it's not like it's an in demand field.

>philosophy majors do really well on the LSAT. Something like the highest scores, I think
Well. THE MORE YOU KNOW!

im majoring in math and minoring in biochemistry. i think its pretty useless

Is this really, unironically, a degree? I mean I remember there being a class or two but not a fucking major. I'm a little older, though.

Yes.

You can get a lot of jobs with a philosophy degree. The jobs won't have anything directly to do with philosophy, but the study of philosophy imparts a way of thinking that's considered useful and valuable.

I took an intro philosophy class and thought it was masturbatory and pretentious as fuck, personally, but not everyone agrees.

I don't have a degree. I fix cars, I made 130k last year. Production body shop, nor Cal

Hey, that's rad. What kind of hours? Do you take time off at holidays?

Irrelevant, but still pretty funny.

This is how you make sure you can never never get a college degree. Failing classes, dropping classes, an carrying a very low gpa are all avoidable if you approach college seriously and take the advice of others. Don't dig yourself into a financial hole and ruin your chances at having a decent and fulfilling future by fucking off in college.

Also, consider getting a BSN. You'd be very surprised at how much you can make on travel assignments, and advancing your education is always an option.

>130k
>nor Cal
Is that enough for a one-bedroom apartment there?

I like this. I like you, user.

I knew a guy like that. Although his problem had more to do with weed and booze. Funny guy, but kinda went wild when he got out of high school and forgot to put effort into passing college classes.

Math and biofag here... not really sure what I'm going to do tbh. After doing undergrad research (genetics) I know I do not want to work in a lab.

Biochemistry wouldn't be too useless if you majored in it in the stead of Math. I would much rather take my chances at finding work as a career scientist than relying on a math major. Plus, biochemistry can be pretty interesting when you think about subcellular processes and how they are entirely mediated by the basics of chemistry. The phosphate groups of ATP, for instance, make me marvel are how a tiny bit of knowledge in chemistry can help anyone understand one of the most important molecules in biology.

What's funny is that the friend I'm talking about is only letting alcohol and weed ruin his life AFTER dropping out of college. Substance abuse would've been a good excuse for his failing out of college, but he was a bit late to the party I suppose. Some people just don't have what it takes to succeed I guess.

Anthropology

>le i am an engineer and that makes me the most important person in the world meme
youre the fucking delusional one you bitch

lol

Bachelor's in Theatrefag here, just my 2 cents:

1. Theatre is fucking hard to make any money in and almost no one will support themselves on it. I've had a few stage gigs where I got paid maybe 100 bucks, and that's it.

2. Other areas of theatre are easier to get jobs in (stage management, lighting, sound, set, etc.) but are also oversaturated with artsy faggots and there's no money in it cause the supply of new workers is huge. Someone will always work for less than you.

3. That said, theatre is a great degree to build a wide range of skills, or at least get a start in them. I learned shit like business management, welding, electrical theory, various types of history, and gay shit like team building and networking, which can be super valuable in the right industries.

4. Was a fun, easy degree to get, had a good time in college, and my dad thankfully was able to pay for it all (also scholarships yeee), so I don't regret getting it, rather than a more secure degree.

Now I work as a sensory scientist, so I'm not really using my degree, except for when the company I work for provides scents to theatrical productions around the city. Then my gay $40k piece of paper comes in handy, but I'm definitely not making any money just based on what I did in school.

7.5/10 would recommend if you aren't worried about the money or you really love the art of being a faggot on stage. And please pick a good program, the one I was in was plagued with favoritism and poor money management and it was dick.

Pic related I'm a faggot

>a philosophy degree is worthless.
yeah wtf all you can do is work at hedge funds and get paid millions what a scam

A tie between,

"philosophy"(just some LMAO WEEDMAN professor trying to sound deep to a bunch of kids who's only reason for signing up it that their parents made them go to college)

and Latino studies, which is really just a political mantra that ironically completely ignores all Latin roots that "Latinos" come from. It can be defined as "We wuz Aztecs enshit"

but pirates are fascinating

>butt-pirates are fascinating

Communications or gender studies.

"AAARRRR, show me yer BBOOOOTTYYY"

Anything from an online college. Papermills are the reason grads cant find jobs.

African women art

Philosophy is by far not the worst. Its just not a major to earn money by. Most people take Philosophy as a dual major.

Except that most "philosophy" classes could easily be recreated in someones basement, without college tuition, a few drinks, some good reading material, and maybe some pot. There is no point in paying for something like that at a school

Most decent paying jobs nowadays want at least an associates degree to even be considered, it doesnt even matter what its in.

been thinking about doing this just so i could travel to foreign countries and gather info on local legends while also banging local qts

Same thing for most college classes. You have the world's knowledge at your fingertips, assuming you possess an internet connection. College degrees just certify that you've done it for real.

I remember reading something about a Communications Engineering degree.

Basically it's about becoming an intermediary between different engineering branches because all engineers are autistic and can't talk to each other. Yes, this is a thing

I majored in International Relations, and minored in a foreign language. During school, I mentioned that I wasn't sure how to apply this afterwards, but my adviser and parents just said "finish your degree and worry about that afterwards."

I can't find shit. Every job related to my major needs 100 internships with presidential level recommendations.

I thought about going back to school for IT, but that's an additional $30,000 of loans when I cant even get a job to cover my living expenses.

Half a step away from killing myself.

The job market is fucked and will only continue to get more fucked in the next few decades. Unfortunately you will always be blamed for not having a better job, and not the economy.

True, granted that certain professors (usually in more specified fields that have a practical application in the real world) do help students to better understand certain things as well as providing job connections.
