Do you want a degree that you can work with now or are you planning on furthering your education?

If you want a terminal bachelor's degree, I have NO idea what to tell ya!

However, if you want a general degree that will prepare you for lots of opportunities in the future, I would go with humanities of some sort: English, Foreign Language, History, etc.

In fact, numerous surveys have indicated that bosses prefer for people with excellent writing and speaking skills (more so, sometimes, than people with specialized bachelor's degrees -- they're seen as more trainable). These skills will also serve you in teaching, politics, law and broadcasting.

Personally, I changed my major 50 million times. The result is an A.A. in Business Administration and a B.A. in English. Now, I'm a graduate student in Theology and will go onto to a second master's in History. And, perhaps, a Ph.D. in English or History so I can be a professor.

You will ALWAYS be better off going after your passion even if people around you think it's silly. If you love something, you can make it work for you.
