As the holder of BA's in both political science AND sociology, I can tell you they do not really qualify one for much of anything except admission to graduate school.
I remember my kids' Mom calling me about our daughter when she had announced she intended to major in political science as an undergrad. I was asked to see what I could do to talk her out of it. It took all of about five minutes.
I simply told her I thought it was a wonderful choice and, that if she didn't go on to law school as she was planning, with that degree she could do what I did with mine and come to work for me leasing semi tractors! [img]/forums/images/icons/shocked.gif[/img]
She was a business major the very next day. [img]/forums/images/icons/grin.gif[/img] She'll finish her law degree in May so it probably didn't really matter, but I still enjoy teasing her about it. [img]/forums/images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
