The obvious flaw in this conclusion is that for them to have measured this difference, they have to be studying people who went to college 20 or 30 years ago.
I submit that the comparison with the value of a modern college education is absolutely ridiculous.
College 20-30 years ago was a whole different experience than it will be for those entering it now, or even for those who have just graduated.
Although college has always been a left wing environment at least since I first attended in 1968 (the year things started getting ugly), today it is pretty much nothing but a Progressive propaganda and indoctrination center full of totalitarian leftist, racist nonsense.
Everyday I see articles about crazy radical professors, courses and policies and their latest departure from relevant reality.
Perhaps it is different for science, technology, math and engineering (STEM). But by and large, modern colleges are pretty much reduced to Orwellian moron factories.
Moreover, 20-30 years ago, virtually all large companies required college degrees as a condition for advancement. But I think that is changing now due to the irrelevancy and ridiculous cost of a modern college education.

They got on the PC wagon later than the liberal arts.
Today colleges have offices of diversity for STEM.
