i don't know how extensive the degree options were in the past, but it seems to me even from what i remember there were a lot more classes unrelated to your degree. lots of math, writing, and science. you learned a lot more than whatever your degree says and came out the other side as being a good bet for any company, regardless of the major.
now it seems like they've genericized and dumbed down the general education side and ramped up all the "fun" (to the student) stuff. flood the market and here we are.
it's kind of funny because throughout the 80s and 90s all sorts of random
people helped all these companies modernize .. many having never touched a computer for the first 40 years of their life, and now it seems like big businesses are babysitters for adults.
