I have noticed that some women seem to use it for husband hunting, though I dont think intentionally. They graduate get a good job, marry, have kids. Quit working and stay home with the kids. Was the degree necessary? Maybe. Might help in raising the kids being well educated. But it funny how school and career oriented they were before the kids. And how into being Mommy they become after and forsake the career. Now this is because the were able to marry well by finding the achievers in college for husband material. Am I crazy on this? Maybe Im imagining things.
Sorry, some residue of disgust over some of the attitudes expressed on that other thread spilled over into my last post on this thread.
To clarify, I see nothing wrong with thinking one may find good spouse material during college. It's just that some were expressing that spouse-shopping or partying are fine and dandy as *primary* reasons for attending college, which I still find plain stupid.
And it's not just the huge waste of money--it's also the fact that such people worsen the educational system rather than better it.
