The '''worst college majors''' are fields of study that leave the student with relatively few job opportunities and often a distorted or ultra-[[liberal]] view of the world. Students incur an average debt in excess of $25,000 for attending college, and these college majors can leave such students without the ability to pay off their loans, which are typically not dischargeable in bankruptcy.

For context, this story takes place recently on September 28th 1918. So, I’m a normal soldier in the British army, (M27) and I’m fighting in the French village of Marcoing against the German army. I serve in the 5th Duke of Wellington’s Regiment by the way.

Anyways, in my line of fire is a man with a very weird kinda small mustache, and he seems wounded. He didn’t even bother to shoot me. He seemed like he was gonna die in a matter of minutes anyway so I was like you know what? Why not let him go. Anyways, he nodded thanks and walked off.

Adding insult to injury, many public colleges have begun charging students more if they decline one of the Worst College Majors, and study something of value instead.<ref>https://www.usatoday.com/news/education/story/2012-04-24/differential-tuition-increase-major/54513940/1</ref>  Incidentally, a study by ''USA Today'' and the non-profit Education Sector showed that 514 colleges are more likely to produce defaults in student loans than graduates.<ref>https://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2013/07/03/514-Colleges-Have-Higher-Default-Rates-Than-Graduation-Rates</ref>

However about 21 years later I’m watching my television as I just repaired it, and I see some army of people with a weird wavy symbol they wear on their arms or something. And then I realize their leader has the same mustache and face as the guy I spared! That’s so WACKY!

In addition, college matters less and less to employers. The number of degree-less hires is trending way up at [[Google]].<ref>[https://www.nytimes.com/2013/06/20/business/in-head-hunting-big-data-may-not-be-such-a-big-deal.html?pagewanted=2&_r=1& In Head-Hunting, Big Data May Not Be Such a Big Deal, NYTimes, June 19, 2013]</ref> President of the John William Pope Center for Higher Education Policy wrote in the Wall Street Journal, “Many liberal-arts graduates, even from the best schools, aren’t getting jobs in part because they didn’t learn much in school.”<ref>[https://www.forbes.com/sites/johntamny/2013/02/10/sorry-left-and-right-no-job-requires-a-college-degree/ Sorry Left AND Right, No Job Requires A College Degree, Forbes.com, February 10, 2013]</ref>

Anyways there’s some kind of second Great War coming up because the mustache man I spared is invading something I don’t know it’s probably nothing.
