“a” college degree?

No...

You have to have useful skills and education that is in demand.

Not much demand for “insert your perpetually aggrieved group” studies degrees.

Who would even think of going into debt for such worthless degees?

This topic seems to be coming up a lot in recent days. I wonder why?

Oh, and your answer is spot on, and has been hammered in again and again in the threads here. I wonder why these Libs writing pieces like this don’t get it?

The bottom line is that our education system has become geared towards shoving everyone through “college”, when really only +/- 15% can really benefit from what most of us would consider a real college education. Vocation / tech schooling and trade apprenticeships have been vastly under-emphasized in our system, and it is not serving us well.
