Major: English (This Major's Salary over time)
I went for the MA program in English. Everyone is given the 50% scholarship. It is basically a cash cow for the PhD program. You take classes with undergraduates, there are only about 3 actual graduate seminars offered per semester. There are a few great faculty here, but four out of the six I worked with wouldn't even answer my emails once I was out of their class.
