I went to a liberal arts university for some

I went to a liberal arts university for some undergrad and during my junior and senior year when I was recruiting for jobs that I kind of resented the fact that my school did not offer pre-professional majors, marketing, business, instead I was a math and history major. I was looking at these very corporate job listings asking for skills like PowerPoint, Excel, financial modeling, none of which were remotely relevant to the classes I was taking. Not only was I concerned that on paper I wouldn't appear the ideal candidate for these jobs, I was also a little worried that the things I was learning were not going to benefit me later. I was dead wrong. And I'm so glad that I caught myself. A few postgrad, I have so much newfound appreciation for my arts education. What I've realized is in my corporate career is nothing is really that hard and fundamental skills like communication, problem solving are all enhanced through your liberal arts education. More important than that, it is such a privilege to be able to dedicate four years of your life to intellectual to explore ideas, to ask questions, spend hours over pouring over concepts to develop your own perspective. Not to mention there's something so pure and innocent about it. And now that I work a 9 to 5, I catch myself missing as I was amongst business and marketing majors for a postgrad job. So I am so grateful for my undergrad education and I would not change it for the world.
