I'm attempting not to live in a box, since I'm getting my MBA, but I LOVE the looks of confusion upon peoples face when they ask my undergraduate degree.
"Classics."
"Huh?"
"Ancient Greek and Latin."
"Oh...well, uh...what could you do with that?"
"Nothing, that's why I'm getting my MBA. "
Apparently, this switcheroo wasn't a horrible idea after all. I'm hoping to get in to marketing, and both professors and professionals I've spoken with seem to be under the impression that having such a non-businessy degree is a boon for a marketer.
