I can believe it.

Chick I tried to date had gone to a private college to study photography and came up short of graduation.


I found out down the road that a photography degree tends to get you LESS income than if you had just started on your own as an amateur.

Because colleges are not places of training but a place to seek connections and status.

Everyone, including STEM folks, take general knowledge degrees. They don't actually learn a job until they're hired.

Doing college coursework doesn't make you anymore intelligent than if you had read the information from the internet.

Oh, but dorms, and parties, and all the ridiculous non-career stuff that people get at colleges...

It's a scam. Even the ivy league schools are showing us how useless the actual course material is. It's all about status and connections


We all know that one guy who never seemed all that bright who has made a career from the people he knows.
