With all the walk ones, I'm amazed it's not more. I was on SEC honor roll 7 straight semesters and really only played one season.

While there are a number of "impressive" majors listed, there are an overwhelming number of majors that either I have no idea what they are or looks like they won't translate to the "real" world too well.

Like "Undeclared".

Upvoted all the posts. Whether you think they are doing the work or not, think they should get paid or not or they all take easy majors they are still taking advantage of getting an education.

Lots of the players wouldn't been in college if not for football.

Basically if you get to 140 credit hours at Auburn they give you a degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. They tried to give me one before my last year. I had to go in front of a board to explain that I jumped around major wise a bit and wound up graduating with 172 credit hours.

We actually take time to think our future career options through, dammit. It's not like a lot of our players are going to the NFL

This, however, concerns me a little. He's either going to be a life coach, a motivational speaker, or the next Hitler.

Making the academic honor roll at UAT means nothing. If you can fog a mirror at UAT you can be an academic All-American. Sort of like being getting the "tallest midget award".

Look more closely, most of those are a form of general studies.

What is HPES? Is that like Kinesiology?

Anyway, props to all of them even if a lot of them are crib courses .

Much respect to Austin Allen and the Supply Chain Management degree.... that is some complicated shite these days. Also to all of the guys with Civil Engineering degrees and to John David Moore for the Architecture.... Architect majors put in some serious hours.
