Is it more worthwhile to go to University and study for a degree with immense practical value, such as Law, which would provide better opportunities for employment and so on, or to study a field of genuine interest but that would have fewer applications 'in the real world'?
From what I hear, Law is hardly as practical as people assume it is. Hell, I know a girl who didn't even go to college and she became a paralegal. Eventually to move up she did take some classes, but still, from Law graduates I hear it's not as easygoing after graduation.
If you have time, parents to live with, and pell grants to pay for your undergraduate education, then go for something that you're passionate for. Regarding grad school, I would say loans are worth it.
This is of course if you plan on remaining in academia. Because really, what else are do you have to offer with an English degree that someone else cannot?

Her job will literally be done by a robot in less than 15 years.
OP, do a degree in anything and get into the Harvard Business School for their MBA,
