Why do SOME people hold such a high view of going to college

[BreezyH]

so many of our elders didn't go - they held it up like this guaranteed ticket to the american dream. better advertising than any for-profit school could ever imagine doing

LET'S BE HONEST THOUGH. 95% OF PEOPLE WHO DIDN'T GET THAT COLLEGE EDUCATION AIN'T GONNA EVER SEE A MILLION.

Made me think about a piece I read from some random site. Had this graph in it:

Not sure where you plucked that statistic from, most the millionaires i know have no college degree

Get mad at college because you picked a shyt major

All 35,000 ppl on a campus can't be STEM majors. I really get tired of hearing this shyt parroted over and over about picking bad majors? So is everyone in the country supposed to only do the same 5 jobs?

 

[DeVanteSwing]

Bill gates and mark zuckerberg went to college lol

they weren't dropouts because they were bad students.....they were dropouts because they were hard workers who went off to start their businesses, and u know how that went

 

[Dameon Farrow]

It's a very small percentage of folks that make it huge without college. Also a small percentage that make it huge with college. Seriously, how old is OP with these threads?

Yo listen to this guy he knows how the game is played. my credit and wallet are messed up because of this. going to college was the worst choice i ever made . I'm 38,000 in debit. with a art degree i can't use

Majoring in art was the worst choice you ever made

 

[Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha]

Majoring in art was the worst choice you ever made

Why would anyone major in art?

 

[Vodun]

Majoring in art was the worst choice you ever made

maybe i picked art because i'm naturally good at it and have a real interest in it.
