Pretty sure for the study they just took whatever degree had the highest average of graduates at the time. So yeah, probably something stupid that would net you 30k after graduation.

I think it was actually a marketing degree, I remember this article, and the Pizza delivery guy was extremely thrifty with everything he did. The results where a little skewed, but if you are half way intelligent you can do well with out a degree, usually a degree is the stepping stone for more growth.
