Based on my own college experience and those of some of my friends, I have always said that college is the new high school diploma and simply getting a bachelor’s degree makes you just “like everyone else”. I have long maintained that if you’re a friggin moron, a degree ain’t gonna do shit for you. I have also maintained that when the market is flooded with college grads, it makes them less special and a 4-year degree is not what it was 50, even 30 years ago. Apparently, I now have “experts” to back me up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V122ICNS8_0
I think it would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the college myth. Post them below, won’t you?
