Skip college save your loot and get into the working world ASAP. No shame in learning a trade anyway the world doesn't need more office clowns with some stupid degree
Perhaps degrees/degree programs are so diluted these days thus why you feel that way. I understand it. Too many business and psychology majors out there.
But college is supposed to be a place you go to learn how the world works and then focus on a specific skill/trade/craft. Thats what it was meant to be. As to what it has become now with so many people with meaningless degrees and partying... is up for debate.
Sure there are some trades that can be learned on the job. You learn the science of a trade in college and when you graduate you still have a lot to learn in the real world. So sure, your mechanic doesnt NEED to have a college degree. But tell me, how comfortable are you when you find out that the doctor operating on your newborn's heart didnt go to medical school?
Do you get that warm and fuzzy feeling about that nurse in the ER who has to sometimes make decisions about your care when the doctor is not available knowing that she didnt go to school to know that your condition, while typically treated with drug ABCD, will only worsen if she injects you with drug ABCD because little did the know that you are allergic to XYZ and drug ABCD can cause certain reactions when mixed with your prescription for XYZ?
Again, doggy. College isnt for everyone. But clowns like you that like to blindly dismiss it are playing yourselves.
interesting idea...I'd advocate for capping the amount of federal/private loans that one can take out thereby forcing alot of these institutions to either provider better financial aid packages or work with what people can actually afford.
but it was an eye opener to not take the free money for granted. I switched my major to Radiation Therepy, I just turned 20 a month ago & work for the government. I got a year left in the program then I plan to transfer to the VA. So yes.. The cost may be high in school but it all depends on that student. Majority gets full ride financial aid or scholarship and treat that as if it was expectant. I was one of them but learned my lesson quick. The whole collateral thing you spitting @Ethnic Vagina Finder is smart tho.
