Summed up, it is about the fact that coupled with inflationary trends across the board, university tuition makes for one of the most expensive things around; more importantly, it highlights the very real fact that education is simply not what it used to be in terms of value; People go into debt for tens of thousands of dollars with little or nothing to show for it and in today's depressed economy cannot find a job. The conclusion is basically that college education is a rip off.
That is a neat summary.
LOL funny b/c the morning show i listen to was talking about this very topic this morning. I think the current generation me included believes that a college degree is the way to a good job. I got out and had a rude awakening as to most, ok you have a college degree so do millions of other ppl including probably 90% of the ppl that just applied for the same job you did.
Also dont go into 100k in debt for college if you are going to be a school teacher...DOESNT MAKE SENSE!!!!!
there are tons of ways to make college cheaper, community college for the first 2 years, live at home, take more than a full load to finish sooner...
Experience is important as well, most college kids straight out of high school dont work or if they do dont work in the field they want to enter into after graduating.
Dont major in some undesirable field, music, psychology(I have a BS in this

lol), kineseology etc...mathematics, accounting, finance, IT, engineering, biology etc...are degrees that are in demand and will always be in demnad...Even if a company is going bankrupt they still need accountants.
If you spend 300k getting a degree to teach pre school then yea its not worth it...LOL
