I could see someone with an art history degree working at an art museum (such as the Louvre and such), but yeah, I've heard of such college degrees that aren't likely to have good job prospects.  I think "general studies" is another one I've seen.  If someone wants to major in something like that, to better themselves or something, it probably makes more sense to pay their own money or don't major in it if they can't afford it.
