<p>My school's Career Planning & Resources office linked to this article on their Facebook today, and I think it's a really interesting read regarding school, majors, career choices, and life in general.</p>
<p>What</a> Are You Going to Do With That? - The Chronicle Review - The Chronicle of Higher Education</p>

The question my title poses, of course, is the one that is classically aimed at humanities majors. What practical value could there possibly be in studying literature or art or philosophy?...</p>
<p>But that's not the question I'm asking. By "do" I don't mean a job, and by "that" I don't mean your major. We are more than our jobs, and education is more than a major. Education is more than college, more even than the totality of your formal schooling, from kindergarten through graduate school. By "What are you going to do," I mean, what kind of life are you going to lead? And by "that," I mean everything in your training, formal and informal, that has brought you to be sitting here today, and everything you're going to be doing for the rest of the time that you're in school.
