It’s said that two out of five college graduates later regret their choice of major, and most of them in liberal arts. One college graduate that I met with a few years ago opted to major in religion. Whether going to college is the best optionThe decision of choosing your college major, even deciding whether going to college is the best option for you, will likely determine much of your life’s future. When I talk about following an academic path that you’ll be excited about, I don’t mean that a four-year college degree is for everyone.

It was a wonderful production and I interviewed McLellan, who is at the Blythe Festival this season, on my podcast below.
