I was an English major, and I know that my only plans were to get my doctorate and teach at the college level.
A lot of the other people in my program, however, planned to go on to law school, and thought that the English background would be beneficial in that pursuit.
It's really a versatile degree, in that it can be used to satisfy the generic requirement of an undergraduate degree for many jobs/grad schools.
