Anyone with a college degree, and many without, can work in China, Korea and seversal other places teaching English for a decent wage plus room & board.

And the last I checked, the US military was still hiring.

I know the film making situation. I’m in Hollywood and the LA FILM School is close by, and those kids still enroll. Why? because the schools are able to tap into the “deep’ money in Pell grants. Then an acquaintance of mine who graduated 2 years ago said her class are NOT in the industry because no one will give them a chance. It’s who you know and these kids are left with a degree that cannot translate in the real world.

However, the “scalable” degrees from Art Institute for their 3 year course maybe the most expensive but I know their grads IF they took the courses which are transferable to any media medium, they have the better chance.

I know some grads from the Film making course were able to use their courses to get into game design and special effects because the courses are transferable making them worthwhile.
