Quote of the Day: Should Have Used Contraception?

What do you do with a B.A. in English? Try not to go to law school, for starters.

[D]on’t make a bad situation worse by doubling down on useless degrees. As I argue, going to the average law school at full price because you can’t get a job with your English degree is like having a baby to try to salvage a crumbling relationship.

— Professor Paul Campos of the University of Colorado Law School, in an interview with Megan McArdle of the Daily Beast.
