Correlation does not prove causality. You'd know that if you hadn't gone to college.

Seriously, though, the college educated are a selected population, they generally have more talent, ambition and drive than those who do not attend. A college education can be an indication of these traits. I am not sure there is any evidence that a college education, per se, adds a lot of value.

Another issue is certification and licensure. More opportunities are open to people with academic “credentials”, no matter how dubious the value of said credentials.

Dear BurkbankKarl -- Where on earth did you retrieve this graphic?!?!

College education was obviously a ripoff for the editor/creator of the graphic.

They could not catch the misspelled words: Diploma ("Deploma"), Bachelor's ("Bachlor's") and Advanced ("Advansed").

As a new lawyer, I’m taking a pay cut from when I was teaching elementary school.
