the problem with BS IT programs is that the industry moves way too fast for most curriculum to stay relevant. like I bet most Windows server classes in any BS IT program right now are referencing server 2008 while in the real world, server 2016 is about to release

:dwillhuh:
In my major we do programing and math..

I've been telling nikkas about the IT hustle since :hamster: and now nikkas are just starting to listen. Been like 5-7 years now.

Just like nikkas didn't listen to me about IT, nikkas aren't listening to me about starting a business. I'm bout to start the 7 figures, 7 whips, 7 pawgs alliance on nikkas :mjpls:

When I was in school it was way worse than that. The programs didn't even prepare for an entry level position. I specialized in networking when I was in school and in 5 years we had 2 relevant networking classes. One on Windows and one on CCNA level material. The Windows class barely touched on AD and didn't even mention Exchange, virtualization, or System Center. All the shyt a Windows engineer would be responsible for and 90% of it was never even brought up.

The Cisco class was even worse as the professor couldn't even create a fukking vlan in the lab without a looking up the command :snoop:

I tested out of both them classes then proceeded to drop out the next year.

Them: Where do I do that? :lupe:

Me: :beli:Where is says "reset my password"

Them: I tried that, it didn't work:damn:

Me: Fine, I just went in and reset if for you:leostare:

Them: :blessed: Thank you so much, you're the greatest!

Me::dahell:


Them: The video player doesn't work for me:sadbron:
Me: Hit this link, I wanna see what that system looks like:shaq:

Them: Internet Explorer on Windows 94, is that bad? :lupe:

Eta: That said, I worked from home all week. I usually show up to the office at 10:30 and wear headphones the entire day while no one really bothers me :francis: Nice work if you can get it

University of Cincinnati. And it wasn't just that school either. Once I peeped game I was going to transfer to OSU, looked at their program and it was even worse than UC's. I looked up maybe 6 or 7 top CS programs in the country and none of them prepared you for an entry level job.

That's when it finally hit me that college was a scam. I remember early on in my career I met this dude who was maybe 23, had his CCIE, and was making would bread. He told his parents instead of going to college he wanted to buy some used equipment and study for exams. He said he invested like 4k and a few years later he was doing consulting.

This was back in 2005-2006 can't remember if I looked them up but I'm sure Penn State is just as guilty. College does not properly prepare you for an IT career. They're stuck using an old ass model that's insufficient for today.
