I run a series of university computer labs that offer research and technology assistance(about 1000 systems over several buildings) and have a large staff who are mostly college students. Several are really sharp and should do well(mostly engineering and science students), but I'm not so sure about the rest. With open book tests being the norm, plagiarism everywhere you look, and the writing skills of many college students being abysmal, I can see why they don't succeed in the "real" world. I recently had to fire a student because he didn't think I was serious when I warned him about blowing off his shifts!

Many kids can not make change in a grocery store, fast food joint...only using their brain.
