Off topic but brings up the issue of how we want to encourage everyone to go to college. Yet so many college kids get degrees in areas which don’t need to career paths. They don’t make enough to pay off student loans and still have money to pay their other bills.

Don’t lead to career paths is what I meant to write.

As you probably know, we want to encourage everyone to go to college, is to make sure a key constituency of the PC crowd has employment which pays far more than they are worth.

I think there is only one reason why a lot of kids today are going to college.

Probably only the hottest girls make enough to pay off their college loans...

I’ve found that the position I’m in right now, if I were to apply or re-apply for it today would require me to have a minimum 2year degree. They prefer 4 years of school. I could never get into a management position without one.
I’ve been passed over many times because of that, yet I’ve been doing the same job for almost twenty years. Plus ten in the Uncle Sam’s Misguided Children club.....

Nowadays, these colleges and universities just want the $$$. They don’t give a damn for the students’ problems after they graduate with a worthless degree in ‘Gender Equality Studies’. I have a high suspicion that the counselors actually push these students into areas that are ‘easy’ to make good grades and little effort is required, just so they stay motivated to take out more loans to give the school.............................kinda like a SCAM..........................
