What is the name of the novel?StormTrooper wrote to Arelor <=-
My experience is lots of people went there because they wanted a degree but they didn't care which one, hence they were not sure what to study.
There was a time here, when positions were government funded we had a cadre of essentially professional students. They'd finish a course, poke around and see what was available and then start another one, sometimes they might have 3-4 incomplete courses, and that was pretty much all they did their entire working lives. None of it was ever put to any use whatsoever.
I read a SF novel where the protagonist has been given an allocation
from his parents' estate, for as long as he is in university. He'd
successfully bounced from major to major for years until he'd finally
taken every course offered, and would have completed one of the degrees
by default...
