1% Majors

Interesting data on which majors are most correlated with being the 1% - or equivalently having at least $350k annual household income:

Lots of usual suspects on the list - majors that are often chosen by lawyers, doctors and bankers. But art history makes the top 10 with 5.9% and philosophy / religious studies is in the top 20 with 4.3%.
