dbwcbb: You are correct. Most young people in college aren’t sure what they want to major in let alone which profession to choose. Most colleges internships are part of the curriculum. This way the student will be able to judge if that is the profession she/he wants to pursue.
I never heard of a BA being obtained in two years. Do you mean an A.A.?
In today’s economic climate a college degree is a necessity NOT a luxury.
My sister thought she wanted to be a lawyer but after speaking with a few she realized that law was not for her. She even took the LSATs. (BTW, she scored very high and didn’t even study). She went into publishing.
I would encourage all college students to talk with people in different industries and ask questions to see if anything piques their interest.
Much luck to all and enjoy your college years. They go very, very quickly.
