Too many people criticize college students majors in today's world. If you are anything that doesn't fall under a certain category of math or science you are expected to either have excellent grades or all the free time in the world. As a communications major, I see it way too often. I strongly believe there are people out there that think students choose the majors they do because of the workload levels. Do you think I chose my major because it is easier than Engineering? No, I chose it because it's what I want to do for the rest of my life. I apologize that my interests don't fall under the same category as yours.
Regardless of your major, minor, etc., college is college. Everyone has the same 124 credit hours to graduate, the homework, the studying, and the finals. Just because someone's major might not seem as difficult, doesn't mean they are not working their ass off in order to succeed. You're right, an advertising major does not do the same things as an electrical engineer major, but I would never say any major is "easy" because of the lack of math and science courses required to take.
All majors are so completely different and require so many different skills, that it is irrelevant to compare one to another. Education majors do not do even an ounce of the same thing that nursing majors do. Same goes for accounting majors and sports com majors. So why are you comparing them?
Looking at the big picture, everyone owes respect to one another's major. Putting down someone's major is putting down what that person is passionate about and what they are skilled in. So next time you want to say someones major is "easy" or "unemployable", think about why you truly chose your major and realize that they are in the same boat by picking a major that they care about and want to do for the rest of their life.
