Sounds like he expected the school to get him a $100k+ job.

Unfortunately, I don’t think his expectation is unusual these days.

Kids are pretty naieve.

Call it “Education Inflation”. Today an undergraduate degree is the equivalent of a high school diploma 30 years ago, and a Masters degree is the equivalent of a undergraduate degree 30 years ago.

I really feel sorry for these young people who entered into such deep debt for degrees. They are so screwed...or their lenders are. Which means tax payers are ultimately screwed.
