Absolutely nothing wrong with "useless" degrees as some are describing them. I work for an IT Consulting company, and half the directors have their degrees in Fine Arts, Greek and Roman Studies, or Philosophy. They simply applied themselves after graduating.
Not everyone needs to become an engineer or get a technical education just to land a job in Alberta, especially one they enjoy. I saw a job for pipe fitting today - should I have ditched my Masters degree and two bachelors just because this job is available? Hell no.
