Interdisciplinary degree in women and gender studies are a minisculle percentage of all degrees out there. So is antropology.

If you want to make the argument that students are mostly picking wrong degrees, make it with one that is actually prevalent. Not the one that is fashionable among rich kids you personally despise.
