“The simple fact is that a lot of the jobs that require a college degree, really don’t. Seems that a good many college degrees are more a means of keeping professors employed than anything.”
especially true in graphic design. you don’t need a master’s degree to teach intro any graphics software. rather have a teacher with no degree and 5 years experience in the software. most graphic design degree requirements are so artists who can’t make a living selling crap they call art can get a job. i have been to cherry creek arts festival and wouldn’t buy 40% of the stuff and would have to be paid to put another 40% of the stuff in my house. remaining 20% is quite good and i have bought some in the past.
When it comes to art, its no longer about quality, its about ideology.
