:Majoring in English leaves virtually no job opportunities to those who take it. [[User:KenJ|KenJ]] 19:24, 20 June 2010 (EDT)

:That's both untrue and irrelevant to my comment. If one wants to go into publishing, for instance, an English degree is generally expected. It is also a good major for professional school opportunities. It is also well-regarded in journalism. I said this, and you seem to have willfully ignored it. Does this mean you think Comic Book Art and Surfing Studies have more job opportunities than English? And, in any case, my removal of English seems to have been reverted on the grounds that the English major is a deceitful liberal institution, which as a conservative English major I am trying to refute. It has many liberals, and some of the professors are biased, but that is true of every single major on many college campuses. I find the English major's inclusion on this list to be a blatant generalization, and I suspect it comes from ignorance as to what an English major at a good university actually entails.

:: I agree. I would go so far as to say that a good portion of the majors listed here aren't inherently "bad" or liberal. What criteria should we follow in incorporating majors to this list? There doesn't seem to be a straight answer. Should this article even be given a proper article space? It looks much more like an essay. [[User:Alreajk|Alreajk]] 21:59, 22 March 2015 (EDT)
