Exactly what I think! Statistics show that most people who graduate from College don't actually work in their field of study later on in life.
I had this discussion with my parents. They were concerned that engineering jobs would be soon shipped overseas. They're totally wrong - U.S. engineers will always be in demand, as long as they're the best in the world. Besides, if you have social and communication skills along with a background in engineering, you can really "go places". The phrase "geeks will run the world" is partially true - it really should be "personable geeks will run the world".
