i love kafka, like vonnegut and am okay with salinger. steinbeck is one of my favorite authors.

but i know many people rattle these three off as their absolute, all-time favorites, and the only thing they have in common is that they are often required reading, are very quotable, and can be read in careless jots without sacrificing much in terms of quality.

no, but you have to have a plan to do something with your philosophy degree for it to really pan out. you can go into law or medicine, but that's something you need to decide in tandem with the major. you can go into science, but you generally need to have a focus in that science accompanying your major. there are a lot of jobs you can get with just a philo major but these are the same tier that you need, like, a history major for.

biology is the major for freshmen who think they're really super gosh-danged smart because they had easy-as-fuck bio and chem classes. the worst STEM major by far.
