only 25% of people get a job in their major

This, but don't go down the liberal arts road because of it. You're still more likely to get hired into a position unrelated to your degree, than with a liberal arts degree. I went to school to be a Gunsmith, and ended up a Design Engineer. A friend of mine tried to get into a similar position as me with the same company with a liberal arts degree and ended up taking a position about 3 pay tiers below me. Employers like to see that you dedicated your education to something in particular, even if that something isn't what they're hiring for. It shows you can make up you mind and get it done, rather than him-hawing about what you want to do with your life.
