Yup, unless a bunch switch they are going to be mightily disappointed when they grad. They all have grandiose plans of going to work for a major, sitting on there arse in an office doing nothing making 100K right out of college. Boy do they get butt hurt when grad time comes and the only companies looking at them are service based and they find out they are spending the next 4 years in the field. Oil prices stay down for an extended period they wont have anyone looking at them.

the bubble has definitely busted.

by the time they graduate, 100K won't be a good salary anymore. Inflation sucks.
