some advice from a college grad: If you're not serious about school, don't go wasting your money just to get a diploma.  Most degrees that aren't heavy in the science or engineering fields aren't even worth the paper they're printed on.  The internet is an incredible resource for learning and most of the information you will get in 4 years of classes is probably available online right now.  A college degree is a good way to get into a field you like but If you don't have a good idea of what type of work you'd like to be doing for the rest of your life, wait a little while. 3 years into a history major isn't the time to figure that shit out.
