Why I majored in Chemistry

In fact, I was a double major in English/Art. But I doubted my ability to get a job with those degrees--these were the Reagan Recession year--and I felt like a quitter for leaving chemistry. So back to chemistry I went.

If I had it to do over, I'd have double-majored in Chem/History/Art History/whatever it took and gone into art restoration.

I will say that I seldom enjoyed workplace chemistry as much as I did the school stuff--never synthesized another compound after I left. OTOH, given some of the reagents I would have been exposed to on a regular basis, I'm glad I got out of synthetic work when I did.
