RE: Is a College Degree Worth It?
a university or college degree is a certificate of achievement in education - it's not meant to be a passport to a career - for that you need specific training. What being in a university does for you is not measurable in the usual sense - it's more what it does to you. If you're looking for a career you're probably looking in the wrong place - if you're looking for yourself and a more meaningful life, you just may find it by taking time to imbibe the spirit of the place and learn from friends in different branches of study. That's the idea of a university.
That is what I wanted to say, but took much longer to say, lol. Figured I could count on John Geddes to put it simply for us.
thanks, lydon :)
