OTC: Just Say No To Journalism

One of my professors this week told us how bleak the future looks for journalism students. Basically, if I manage to find a job after graduation, I'll make a laughable salary. Can I just stay in college forever, please? At least here, it's considered normal to live off tuna fish and Ramen Noodles/Kelli, University of Idaho Argonaut. More Off The Cuff here.

Question: What would you tell your child, if s/he expressed a desire to go to college to become a journalist?
