Note that the arts tend to result in a high-Gini pay distribution of graduates (i.e. the top paid graduates do quite well, but things are not so rosy for others), while some other majors like physician assistant and nursing tend to result in a low-Gini pay distribution of graduates (the lower paid ones do reasonably, but the top paid graduates do not do as well as in many other fields). However, the top paid graduates in just about all majors make a good living. See http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/info-Degrees_that_Pay_you_Back-sort.html .
