Or the joke about my major, English, "how can you fail a class in your native tongue?"

Out of my circle of ENGL majors, one owns an IT company, one pursued a career in writing, one passed away while working as an editor, I went into journalism. Oh yeah, and one works at a music store.

I would think biochem would limit you to academia or research. As far as Art, the last reporter I hired had actually been an art major. Talent is talent.
