You want to study History (or Anthropology) in college. History majors study the writings of history, Anthropology majors study historical artifacts. If your goal is to work at a museum or historic site, a BA in History is fine. . . be sure to do an internship or 2 to get some work experience before graduating. If you want to teach History in a public school though, you'll want your BSEd in History Education. If you want to teach at a community college, you'll need to do an MA program, which you can enter after completing either a BA or BSEd program. Also note, if you choose the BA route, a minor in Business will help you out tons. Really, every field is a business, and knowing a few things about business will improve your chances to find good employment, and move up in your company/nonprofit.
