If you are not up to speed on Gordon College‘s decision to end its history major (and a bunch of other majors) get up to speed here and here.
It turns out that Gordon’s VP for Finance and Business Development was an undergraduate history major.
While I hope that Mr. Truschel fought valiantly to keep the history major at Gordon, perhaps serving as the only dissenting voice in the meeting when the cut was made, I have my doubts.
I think it’s fair to say that I won’t be interviewing Mr. Truschel for my “So What Can You Do With a History Major?” series anytime soon. 🙂
