What Can You Do With An Animal Science Degree?

1. Stick your hand up a cow’s butt when it’s called for. Not just for kicks anymore!
2. Be the one that everyone assumes can handle the gross thing the dog threw up.
3. Go out and get a job in an unrelated field if you want to earn enough money to eat on.
4. Take horse-packing trips into the backcountry to see the most magnificent view that few people will ever see.
5. Raise a bunch of kids that have no interest in 4-H or FFA whatever. Ungrateful heathens!

Threadkilling seems to be yet another resume enhancer of the agriculturally degreed.

What can you do with a Library Degree?
2) Answer questions like “So, you like to read,” and “Do you know the Dewey Decimal System” and “You need a degree for that?” (Yes, yes, and apparently)

I prefer the “You need a master’s degree for that??” question.
Additional things you can do with a Library degree:

Teach classes where you can try to convince freshmen of the wonders of the library.

Schmooze the professors, hoping they’ll start bringing their classes for wonderful library instruction.

Create bulletin boards!

What can you do with a music degree?

1. Spend many mornings of your life trying to convince interviewing panels that you do have other interests/ skills besides music and would make an excellent receptionist/ office junior/ waitress and aren’t actually an airy-fairy scatterbrain so wrapped up in your art that you can’t function normally in the ‘real’ world…

2. Be a human encyclopaedia, able to answer any question about any composer or piece of classical music no matter how obscure. Surely after four years of study you must be able to identify this theme from the third movement of a flute sonata that I’m whistling to you now…

3. Regularly attempt to play stuff you’d mastered at 18, bemoan your weak, wet-fish-like fingers, fantasise a little about playing for an enraptured audience of thousands, then go off and smoke a cigarette and watch some crap on TV.

4. Help prevent spontaneous sing-alongs from falling apart by getting your mates back on track when they’ve lost the key

5. Impress people at parties - see it is good for something.

This is exactly what I do with it…

6. Learn Klingon with minimum effort

Or, learn Ithkuil with a whole lotta effort.

Sometimes you just don’t know whether to laugh or cry

What you can do with a technical theatre degree…

-Remain at the school’s theatre for six, seven, hell, maybe even eight years, with no progress outside that little world.

-Spend a lot of time looking down on the only creature lowlier than a theatre tech: Actors.

-Closing Night Parties. 'Nuff said.

Out of curiosity SPOOFE, where did you get that degree, and does the name “Harvey Sweet” make you look for a pistol or blunt instrument?
