Advice for Young People (Education Still Sucks)

(I was listening to Grammar Girl, and the topic was "graduated from college". Lo and behold...)

This is an English major who can't write two sentences without twice as many errors: http://www.answerbag.com/q_view/127475

"I recently graduated college with a degree in English and am at a major crossroad in my life. I can either go to Japan and teach English for a year or go back to school for my teaching credential/master's degree. What should I do?"

Did he really get a degree in English? I got mine in Ethnic Studies, which is allegedly not a good degree. Here's the corrected version:

"I recently graduated from college with a degree in English, and am at a major crossroads in my life. I can either go to Japan and teach English for a year, or go back to school for my teaching credential or master's degree. What should I do?"
