The worst part about it for me is that I actually would make a good teacher. I just can't stand children, be they pre-school or college-age, for extended periods of time. I wouldn't be able to shake it. It seems to be the go-to profession for history people, though, which I guess is why it's thrown at us all the time. :/

Taking over the world is a much better alternative. Go for it!

er, I never really thought of college aged people as children...

Most of the ones I deal with on a daily basis act like children trying to be adults. I know because I'm of the same mindset a lot of the time, which is really depressing when I think about it. However, when we have to be instructed not to put lab equipment in one another's ears because some guy ruptured his friend's eardrum pulling that kind of crap a few years ago, yeah, I'd say there's an air of immaturity around.

Also, a lot of the undergrads attending my university seem really young. Like, will only just be able to legally drink before graduation young.

Huh? If you go to a 4 year university after you graduate high school (in the US, at least), you should just be able to drink in your final year. Maybe part of the third year if you have an early birthday. Maybe that's why everyone seems that age - it is the traditional age for attending university?

A lot of the kids I know are coming in as freshman at 17, so I guess the math works out for them to be legally drinking during their fourth year. I don't know.

All I know is that there is a shit ton of underage binge drinking at my university done by all of these baby-faced kids who look more like high school freshmen than college freshmen, and it's unsettling. I don't know how old they actually are, but they look young and act young, so I assume they're, well, young.

It depends on the person. Some people haven't truly matured much at that age.

I'm not sure how much of a go-to profession it is. Most of the other history majors and I commiserate over the fact that none of us are really all too interested in being teachers- at least, not any more interested in being teachers than the average person would be. Certainly, there are a few of us who are looking into it, but it's hardly a default.

Unfortunately, people keep assuming it is, which doesn't do anything for its appeal.

The other thing I like to reply with is that if I did become a history teacher, I'd aim to be the same sort as Vo Nguyen Giap was. And after explaining to them what Giap was capable of doing...

My university has a specific track for history majors going into primary and secondary education. Nothing like it is available through any other major. Most of the history majors I know aren't particularly interested in teaching either, but the career information given to us lists teaching (post secondary for the track I'm on) as the second item under 'historian' when naming potential career options. It's almost like they expect to make teachers out of us, so I see why people get the idea that history is only useful for teaching.

Aww. Hopefully one day you'll find mature students to teach, maybe one on one. I promise we exist! :D

I know you do, anon. ♥ You're just few and far between based on the experiences I've had.
