Hi meadow,
Imagine how all the art history professors feel!
But seriously, if anything, one of them will become a Public Health recruiter. Or even the Surgeon General. Or president of the school. I would imagine in this day and age the students, and the parents often footing the bill, are able, or do, see with both eyes open.
And how many people do you know have a job directly connected to their school or major?
They will get an education in something, and that in itself is worth it, if that’s what you want to study.
You did not waste your life. You learned how to connect with people and use your speaking skills. Pretty good skills to have for an occupational therapist!
