It's doubly tragic because history is crucial to understanding why the world is the way it is today. Knowledge is power.

It's a bit weird when you know more than your teacher and he has a lot of his facts wrong.

At least the good thing about having an innate talent for History is that I can type 2000 words in a night and somehow still get a 2:i for it.

Fuck the history channel for getting me interested in this shit. I wish there had been a finance or math channel I would have been drawn to instead.

>>313769
It would help if I had topics like the history of the Soviet Union instead of the history of latin american women. The classes that were offered....

>>316051

It's actually easier when you have a specific topic, a 10 page paper on the history of the ussr will be shit

>>316058
I'm talking in terms of class options. My upper division history class options were all variations of that shit. African Women in the United States. Latin America and Christianity. As someone who is primarily interested in military and European history, I fucking hated this shit.

Become an archaeologist senpai

Tricky to get work, but it's doable, especially in places where there's a building boom (it was like that here- they were building so much shit that they found loads of ruins, ancient sites etc., so tons of work for archaeologists)

Should I do it?

I'm going to start an arts/interdisciplinary course soon, for the knowledge rather than career or fame. Anyone have experience? How much autonomy do you get? My vague idea is later levels you do papers on anything that captures your interest aesthetically, analysing it using your preferred philosophical or critical theory. I just want to be more educated in culture generally. I'm guessing you don't need to get involved with stuff like identity politics or ucantnonuffin unlike some here would have you believe?

Leave your 1st World country, move to a 3rd World where the cost of living is cheaper and become a history teacher/professor.

Here in the Philippines, history professors are financially stable(somehow) as long as they have their job.
