New data from the New York Fed highlights how the job situation for recent graduates is worsening. While the rest of the labor market trends favorably, fresh graduates are more likely to be unemployed than the base U.S. working population.

So my underwater, lesbian, basket weaving degree won’t get me a job?
Two separate issues
Holler at Mike Lee for being a jerk
Engineers have been hammering this issue since the 1970s. We were Pooh poohed.
If your school is on it Satan will be wearing ice skates before you are hired no matter how "woke" the company purports to be.
You are a trained trouble maker with poor thinking skills.
If this is accurate just look at the majors they have. Women’s studies or gender studies etc.
Since I am conservative, I would be hated in the other jobs by the bureaucrats and it would be continual frustration. Plus, Chicago is mess and beyond repair.
