    In art history, no less. I have a sneaking suspicion that those student loans aint getting paid back. I'm guessing she is going on the minimum payment plan and will take 30 years to pay off her loan. (So i guess she will finish paying at age 124, then its all gravy from there!):D

    Actually it is a handicap when applying to jobs in which a degree is not needed.
