However, still some hope for the marketable skills like engineering/sciences and business. The rest is extremely expensive fluff IMO.
And the campus life stuff is secondary, too.
Goes without saying but the purpose of any form of training is to learn skills that will be a stepping stone towards a job and the means to earn a living. It is secondary and icing on the cake if the job turns out to be “fun” and enjoyable.
All three of our sons had very little college and all earn a very handsome living through hard work and a healthy work ethic. We are so very proud of them. (Sales, Real Estate, and Restaurant business in that order)
