Will a history major help in the future? Or will an IT or tech job help in the future. The buggy wipe was a great tool that they thought would always be needed. If you have a Corvette? Does the buggy wipe help? Students need to look at Cyber Security and other useful jobs of the future. Look for the schools that partner with NSA.

Both, not everyone needs to be an IT expert and there will always be a need for historians. Authoritarians hide and alter history to take power. History proves humans have become power hungry and people need to know how they came to power to keep it from happening again.

I've helped a lot of young men and women wrestling with their choice of a major. My best advice is to focus on skills. I have a Juris Doctor and earned my living variously in the arts, marketing, and technology, not to mention a short though adventurous six years in the military. So, who's to say a history major can't become a foremost computer security expert?

Also it helps to go to a trade school, they always need people that can do hands on work.
