If a kid wants a decent job that requires a college degree (such as teacher, accountant, HR, marketing, sales, etc) - then pick an in-state public university with low tuition. Or take the first two years at community college and live at home if possibile. An in-state school may be close enough to home to live at home, or at least travel to/from expense will be minimized,
In the end, it won’t make one bit of difference where the sheepskin came from. Plus, the quality of education is higher than bigger institutions, classes are smaller and more apt to be taught by instructors rather than grad students, plus the party atmosphere will be less.
Sorry, but WHY does a teacher, accountant, etc. REQUIRE a degree? Because govt??
Where/when did all the apprenticeships die-off? Why are biz not offering ‘free education for X yrs. of work’ (Yeah, I know, prob. GOVT again).
No, We have allowed govt WAY too much leeway. I think even we here on FR forget govt is force/authority, but only the People have the Rights and POWER.
