...program for me at a 2 year college? Want to be a college professor in Humanties but do not know what to take as major in junior college. and then on to regular university. they offer humanities but what about the education part? I know I will need at least my masters to start out teaching at a junior college level, then later I can obtain my PhD. But I want to know the best way to go about this, since I have started late in life on my college career. I want to do it as fast as I can the best way that I can.

If you plan to pursue an M.A., M.S., or Ph.D., I would recommend majoring in Humanities proper, Liberal Arts, or English at junior college. A major, in fact, may not be required: you can take a number of foundational courses in the humanities that you can use for transfer credit, which should allow you to skip those courses when you get to work on the B.A/B.S. For the time being, I don't think you'll need to worry about Education courses, since many of those credits won't be transferable when you get into a Bachelor's program. If your interest is speed, get your core courses out of the way at juco, and then begin a B.A. in Education with a concentration in Humanities (or whatever subfield that most interests you) when you're ready.

There really isn't any one major or field--at a two-year college or otherwise--that prepares one to be a college professor. At this point, you shouldn't worry so much about graduate school and beyond, when you are just starting out in a two-year program.

If you think you may want to pursue an undergraduate degree (and later a graduate degree) in the humanities, then why don't you choose a major now in your two-year program that would prepare you for that kind of direction. Maybe an English major? History? Political Science? I am not sure what offerings your school has to choose from...
