E.g. this tool from Berkeley lets you select (but not deep link ...) by major and see median salary by year.

- EECS goes from $116 in 2018-2019 to $129K in 2022-2023

- CS goes from $118K in 2018-2019 to $135K in 2022-2023 (I'm actually surprised that this is slightly higher than EECS, given that I think it's supposed to be the easier option).

Of course data from 2023-2024 grads won't be available for some time. But my point is that 75k would be like a 40% drop of median salaries. Is the dip really at that scale from last year's grads to this year's?
