8 College Degrees with the Worst Return on Investment: It's likely that all of them have a disproportionate number of female students

Here's the list for the lazy:

Communications
Psychology
Nutrition
Hospitality/Tourism
Religious Studies/Theology
Education
Fine Arts
Sociology

Yup, definitely all female dominated.

Before handing out any more guaranteed student loans, maybe it's time for banks to apply some underwrting standards? Seems like quite a challenge to pay off if you're majoring in any of these.

Did you notice every picture of a person was a woman?

Too bad the person writing the article doesn't know the difference between religious studies and theology.

TIL my philosophy and religious studies degree lines me up for a job as a priest.

I actually really hate the title to this post... It sounds like hate mongering. I understand that you are probably talking about the wage gap, and that how women are an the lower end of things because of what they choose to study in college, but without the percents on how many women to men choose these majors, it's really just opinion.

I'm not going to say that I disagree with the fact that those might be female dominated majors, but we are just as bad as feminists if we pull this shit. Please stop.

I might disagree with Religious Studies/ Theology being dominated by women. I've never met a woman who majored in Religious Studies; but I know 3 men who have. All of them went on to seminary.

But the other 7 majors, absolutely agree.

Can anyone provide stats on male/ female ratio in Religious Studies ?
