B.A. English - Marketing/Advertising.

I'm kinda using my education since I write a lot, but I'm slowly getting into graphic design and layout. Taking classes, learning the software on my own, etc.

I think for most liberal arts degrees, it doesn't really matter although synergies are important... ie: English and doing a lot of writing. Most people I know are not in careers directly relating to thier majors. What's important is to have the diploma that says you can finish a job. Skills are what employers are looking for, not degrees.

Except in the case of science or engineering. It's kinda hard to be a biologist if you don't have a degree in biology
