Good point Laura. Of my group of friends, there's only 3 of us who haven't gone to grad school. And I am applying to grad school.
The other 2 are deleriously (sp) happy being stay-at-home moms right now, but one of them does plan to get her MBA when her son starts school. So of a group of about 15 women, only 1 has not attended/has no plans to go to grad school.
Two of my attortney friends undergrad majors were anthropology and art, respectively.
Undergrad majors don't have a huge influence on what you do with your life. You can step out of your cap and gown and into virtually any entry level position in any field.
Or...go to grad school and specialize yourself.
Undergrad is, as lauradav said, a place where you learn to use your brain, do research, write fast and work your butt off. But also where you learn to live your own life separate from your parents, make friends you will have for the rest of your life, and discover who you truly are.
