Point well taken. A liberal arts education is of value for itself and won't necesssarily pay off.
But that's not why I'm bitter. I didnt go that way. I went for the money, with a information systems major from the college of business and I'm now living in the inner city with less income and a new debt load. I'm saying that even if you go for the dollar college doesn't pay off. Lama Sybill said, >>>>>Okay, now you've hit a nerve with me, and one of my pet peeves. One must ask themselves if they want an education or job training - they are often not the same thing. The focus in this country is so much on earning a dollar that little things like ignorance and illiteracy are just overlooked. REAL education in this country just isn't valued anymore, and I offer George W. Bush as exhibit #1. He finally hit the career jackpot, but that man is as dumb as a rock. No, being well educated doesn't insure a good job and income. It's all a matter of priorities I suppose.
