I did art history and I loved it. Art's amazing and learning how to read it has enriched my life in ways I could have never imagined. The one issue is that we live in a country now where our own government has told artists, musicians and the people who support them that their expertise has no value and they need to retrain as something else to survive. I don't regret choosing to study the thing I love, but I can't lie and say that finding a job has been easy with it. Life is about more than money, so if you share that mentality go for it, but if you are eager to be the richest version of yourself in terms of money, then I would say Art History isn't the right course for you. read more
