In case any of you are unfamiliar with the term:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mickey_Mouse_degrees
One of my cousins is getting a degree in "Outdoor Adventure Leadership" naturally when he told everyone at the Thanksgiving dinner table we all
.
But, after hearing what he had to say about it and checking the requirements page :
I suppose he is right on the different possibilities. Some of the things he mentioned, Pay of head park rangers, Outdoor fire fighting possibilities, cross country ski hut to ski hut tours (Though you can only really do this in the Alps or Chile ..... but both of those places are awesome
) , ski resort management (The business entrepreneur courses help prepare for this), chance to give eco tours in different locations as your own business, being a reporter in places where normal reporters "can't go" ..... or at the very least being a guide for reporters in said locations and there are enough credits in English alone to be a legit English teacher. He said he is going to try and join the military in some sort of officer and "commando" capacity, so I am sure he will have lots of job options. ...... I think he probably made a good choice.
I think a lot of the flack he is getting is just because of the rep the school has it self as being a "ski bum" liberal arts school. .... Which is not really that far off. If you see is facebook profile every picture of him and his classmates is of them sking and even though they have about 500 students they are national college ski champions
Any way what do you guys think, mickey mouse degree or legit?
Post other degrees with that question in this thread, or even just degrees where you are skeptical about the career options of some degree etc. And we will give you our thoughts.

At least Outdoor Adventure Leadership has enough English credits that it would get you accepted into a English graduate school program.
