I still laugh at my younger sister and her poli-sci degree which she got in 1987. Wanted to go into the foreign service. Yeah right. Ended up going to the Peace Corps in Africa for 8 months of living in a shithole and then to a travel agency for a year. Great investment sis.
Original degree was in Elementary Ed, then went back to a Community College years later for an office-tech certificate (MS Office) and bookkeeping. Haven’t look back ever since.
My degree in El Ed. cost about about 20k (1984-1988). My two certificates cost about $5500 combined.
What finally happened to your sister? Did she finally get a good job with her degree?
