In all seriousness, my number one piece of advice I give to any students today is to always apply for co-ops and internships while they are in school because that practical experience will mean far more than an employer than what they have on their degree unless they have a specific STEM field or specific business degree.
I love the classics and I wish that it was part of today's well rounded education as for centuries it was the basis for common thought and framing of western civilization but outside of writer, lawyer, or politician, I find little utility in today's workplace for a classical education.
