Anthropology is good when paired with another major. I can't stand the cultural theory courses we have to take, they are so boring. I am thinking about concentrating on archaeology, since I find the courses the most interesting.
I am not an antrho major, but a I am taking some anthro classes and it's really interesting. my teacher lived w/ the toba batak in sumatra and it seems worth the degree to me if you get to go spend a few years living w/ another culture...good luck.
