I have a young 1st cousin that has a BA in philosophy and is travelling the world as a street performer. He stands on street corners in various major and not so major cities and juggles, rides unicycles and swallows swords. He has also performed with a national circus, interviewing with that country’s head of state to get the job. He earns a simple living and does not have children to support.
Poli Sci major - first job out of college worked for a prestigious bar association (found the job in the want ads of The NY Times!). Realized I had no desire to go to law school. After several years returned to DC area and worked at a public policy think tank. Eventually ended up working in a university program that provides education to federal employees regarding how to work with Congress (policy making, budgeting, etc). Loved that job-very interesting. Have mostly been a stay at home mom for the last 15 years.
5 of my college roommates were Accounting majors. All got jobs at what was then “The Big 8” public accounting firms in NYC. Each got their CPA, all eventually left accounting altogether. A few are stay at home moms, one went back to school and became a nurse, the other went into finance. Another roommate was an English major. She went into a bank management trainee program right out of college and still works in banking. Another college friend was some sort of liberal arts major, I can’t recall, she has always worked in the tv industry.
