Date: Jan 24 2013 Major: (This Major's Salary over time) Don't go here. Got my BS in Secondary Education, but failed to find a job in first couple years. In my field, that means you are unlikely to ever find another job. Waste of my money and time. Only worked at a school for two months (as a night Janitor!). Met a couple good professors, but most didn't help or were not experienced enough to teach anything.
Having Temple on my resume hurt me in the end. The few interviews I did get for teaching positions ended with them wanting to know why I would choose to go to such a sub-rate school, especially since I had a 3.3 GPA in high school and could have gotten into a better school. That said, I moved out of Philly right after graduation, so maybe had I stayed the supposed alumni network might have help.
