A World Without English Majors? Why Colleges Should Tell Students About Job Prospects Before They Commit

A World Without English Majors?

Now officials in the United Kingdom are proposing an interesting solution to the mismatch between majors and job prospects.

That way, majors with a poor employment track record will be "named and shamed" and the degrees with the worst records several years in a row would eventually be axed.
