Well, it's been 30+ years since I've been to college but, I don't imagine things have changed much. LOL

I have had 3 careers in my lifetime Engineer/Sales/Business Owner.

College was for engineering because that's what I thought I wanted to do for the rest of my life. After about 10 years of it. I realized it wasn't what I wanted to do.

Don't worry about which college or what major. There is no way in hell a 20 year old kid (no offense) knows what he wants to do for the rest of his life. (I know I didn't).

I would say 2 things.

1. Go to a college where you will enjoy yourself. College is a fantastic time in your life and (believe it or not) reading, writing and arithmetic are not the most important things you will learn in college. Getting along with your fellow man. Learning self responsibility. Getting laid..... lot's of important things.

2. Finish what you start. Most employers are not as concerned about your major as they are the fact that you finished. Nobody likes a quitter.

I guess the exception to my advice would be the genius kid who should go to Harvard, graduate at the top of the class, take the CEO offer from WalMart with the 35 million dollar a year paycheck and.......enjoy. LOL

College is a wonderful time of your life. Work hard for the things you want and struggle to exceed your goals but........don't forget to enjoy yourself.
