From The Finkler Question, by Howard Jacobson, a passage that describes to perfection my own university career:

"He’d been a modular, bits-and-pieces man at university, not studying anything recognizable as a subject but fitting components of different arts-related disciplines, not to say indisciplines, together like Lego pieces. Archaeology, Concrete Poetry, Media and Communications, Festival and Theatre Administration, Comparative Religion, Stage Set and Design, the Russian Short Story, Politics and Gender. On finishing his studies — and it was never entirely clear when and whether he had  finished his studies, on account of no one at the university being certain how many modules made a totality — Treslove found himself with a degree so unspecific that all he could do with it was accept a graduate traineeship at the BBC."
