Abstract
A young undergraduate returns home for Thanksgiving dinner during the Fall of his senior year. The house is full of relatives. Aunts, uncles, and cousins are gathered around the table. A voice from the other end of the table towers over the dull roar of the small crowd. "SO John, tell me, what are you studying to be in school?" John slowly looks up from his plate and replies, "I'm studying geography." "Geography," his uncle exclaimed. "What do you plan on doing with that, teach the names of all the capitals?" "I'm not sure just now. I might keep going to school and study planning."
