The term “college degree” is not synomonous with an educational achievment. College degrees in what now passes for liberal arts do not reflect any educational achievment and in many cases the holders of such degrees are functionally illiterate. One day just for fun try having a substantive discussion with a recent holder of a degree from most colleges and you will be amused.
Women, on the other hand, have the luxury of going to "college" to major in "Women's History" or "Gender Equality" or "Education Theory" or "African American Sociological Impediments To Constructive Progress." Etc. Women have that luxury because their husbands are working gainful employment and supporting their wives who are playing in college.
And when they're not playing in college, they're in the student center watching Oprah the Whale.
