I've worked with a lot more math and physics grads than, say, poli sci or sports medicine grads. Not to disparage fields that aren't math or physics, and I don't have a degree in the fight in any case; just that I have noticed something of a preponderance over the years among those who do have degrees not actually in the field.

Right, but there are other fields of work where poli sci grads would be more common than math and physics grads.
Government, I suppose, but then that's basically what they're trained for, so...
Do you have actual stats on where poli sci graduates work?

Take English majors as a more straightforward example. Virtually no English majors are employed doing anything directly related to their studies.
