Don't look at your college degree as a backup plan. Study something you will really enjo (I'm a Poli Sci Major).

I met my future cofounders, employees, managers, at school. But if you want to stay in school "just in case" you need a degree for a job, you are wasting your time. Go to school because you want to learn, not because you want a job.



> Study something you will really enjoy

It's kind of a paradox though, it's hard to have real passionate interests when you've never been out of school, traveled, lived.
