I am sure that 30 percent were actually able to use their degrees so they feel it was a justified college experience. The other 70 percent either got a useless degree that got them zero jobs, or it sort of helped them a bit, but not enough to justify 40,000 in debt. |
That right there exlplains everything. Its mostly the high schools that made this problem. I still remember when they thought me that I could be anything and that I should follow my passion and the money would follow after. That is just nonsense. Getting a degre in something nobody is hireing for is just dumb. As I seen in some reports, like 60% of college graduates are fron gender studys, liberal arts, sociology, psychology, communications and other nonsense that offer no real world applications, psychology does but the market is saturated.
But that issue should resolve itself in time. When new students see what a waste their seniors are, they will stay clear of thouse subjets. Sadly people dont get paid to have fun, they get paid to work and while some people do enjoy what they do, thats not the norm. At most we are looking to tolerate what we do for a living.
It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.
