What job and salary did this state school humanities degree promise?

I don’t know, I’m not a genius, but I kinda figured which majors may not help me in the economy.

It's clearer now, definitely. This was in the late 90s and both my parents were humanities academics.

I ended up getting a master's in English and taught essay writing for a while. Many decisions later, I work as security analyst and end up writing a lot on the job, so I like to think things have worked out. I guess. I wish I knew C and more low level cs concepts like some of my coworkers.

It's not too late to learn. Just start playing around with stuff

Yeah. You could take just a single intro to cs class (or c)and go from there. Programming has so much demand you can start later in life than probably any other field.
