Major: History/Histories (art history/etc.) (This Major's Salary over time)
Potsdam is a good school if you're into just strong studying. Don't excpect to be out doing much as the temperature here drops to subzero real quick after the start of October. The history department as I've seen hasn't done much for me. I've had several meetings with my counselor each ending in me learning nothing and being rushed out of the room. The students attending the school aren't that bad, although some can be snooty and arrogant.
If you're a minority student like me, and you haven't been in a situation where there aren't as many people of color around you as you're used to, you may want to reconsider unless you're ready for a culture shock.
