Is a college degree a path to being a rounded individual by learning about stuff beyond a mere vocation. (literature, math, history, polictics, sciences) or is it just a ticket to enter a job. (lawyer, social worker, government job)?

Do men want women for whom inteligence is a means to punch a clock or do men want a woman for whom inteligence is a means to live a life? I choose the woman who wants to live a life.

I've never been to college, but I would assume that the experiece should be part of making someone a bit more well rounded. There are, of course, those who see a college degree as simply a ticket to a better (or more extravagant) life, but honestly, I don't see anything wrong with that in principle.

It's better to be working and earning a living rather than accepting handouts as a way of life.

Good luck with finding your Greek-speaking Ms. Right! :)

I knew alot of girls who could speak Greek when I was growing up...a suggestion, start attending an Orthodox church.

There, my 'mom' work is done...
