And no let up in the 500,000 Chinese “students” who get to keep coming here and of course get a work visa when they graduate.

Something about “supply” and “demand”....

Political Science degrees ain’t what they used to be....................

Come in as an H1B from India. You’ll get hired with a fake diploma and no experience. You don’t even have to speak English, just some form of gibberish that they think passes for English.

No Anthropologist jobs in the want ads.

Data analysis does not sound like a manufacturing or engineering job. The Renaissance in manufacturing is just beginning in US. Get a degree in applied mechanics or civil engineering or mechanical engineering for better job prospects.

Misleading, as the impact varies a lot by major field of study. A lot of naive freshman are being talked into majors in Gender Studies, World Handholding, and Kumbuya Studies.

There’s a lot of outsourcing of tech jobs and call-center jobs to other countries. In an Albert Brooks movie, he’s walking down a street in Pakistan and passes an open window in an office. You hear a voice saying in a Pakistani accent, “This is the White House - may I help you?”

Even CPA grads have to study a year with a CPA before they get the green light raw workers can be a drag.

Employers are not hiring from woke universities. They find that they get NO work from them. They are going back to traditional universities where common sense skills are taught.

Trump bad. Now, what was this “news” piece all about?

[vpintheak]

They get crap degrees, so they get crap jobs. Welcome to the suck. Your parents or mommy didn’t care to tell you the truth and you just borrowed borrowed and borrowed. Now you’re stuck. Anyone with any sense could have known your degree was crap.
