Definitely keep it on your resume, a college education is a requirement for tons of roles. Even if it's seemingly unrelated to the job you're applying to, it's important to have on there. I've got an equally useless degree (history) and still include it on mine.
What’s the target role, Op?
I would include it, just name of college and bachelor/associates, whatever you received. Outside of my major, I still had a lot of general education classes that taught me a lot. If you aren’t going into a philosophy specific profession, I would focus on the other things you learned or got experience in.
Definitely keep it on your resume. Philosophy majors can bring a lot to the table. Think about all the time you spent reading, analyzing text and understanding texts from different perspectives. Those skill sets are valuable in any work place particularly if you’re working with clients and business development. I would assume you also spent a lot of time writing, which is becoming a lost art. (I was an English major)
