I saw on the news this morning that a woman graduated with a Masters Degree....in THE BEATLES!!!
Seriously, this woman holds the first ever Masters Degree in a college program that is set around the history of the Beatles. So what would she be able to do with this college degree? Well, probably nothing much but open up her own Beatles museum.
Honestly, I've never been that big of a fan of the Beatles. I feel that they, as well as Elvis Presley, Michael Jackson, and in the North Iowa area, Buddy Holly, are all overrated. Sure they have some great songs. And I like rock and roll and a few pop songs, but seriously, no group is worth making a college program in which you can't do anything with the degree. If you want a degree you can't do anything with, just get an Associate's. Trust me, I looked and couldn't find any jobs.
But should our schools make degree programs that are useless? Wouldn't it be better to spend money in other areas? The school stated that the reason they designed the program in the first place was that "there were a lot of books about the Beatles, but there weren't any education programs". Hey, guess what! There are a lot of books about Sesame Street, but no college or university has a degree program. If there were, I wouldn't be an HR major!
That's it for me!

I hear for a while The Beatles were into pharmaceuticals. That course should help med students, right?
