...akin to around 60k for the rest of the country outside of places like NYC, etc. You have no concept of what realistic earnings are. No college student is going to be pulling much north of 100k within a decade without living in a high cost metro or being in a very technical field that requires...

...leftist stuff wouldn't see the light of day. Feminism has ruined women, for themselves and for men, there's no doubt about that. As for college, even in my day college was not seen as a guarantee to success. The main point I see is certain jobs require degrees, and if you want those jobs...

You probably don't understand this, but a course in college about human evolution should be heavily focused on things like primate evolution that eventual lead to bipedalism, stone and later fire use, Homo Erectus leaving Africa and evolving into various species and later modern humans evolving...

I didn't mention a generation in particular, nor did I blame you specifically. But you can explain to me why it's me (or gen Z in that case) being lazy? I'm studying engineering at the top school of my continent, landed a part time job last month and got my drivers license last week. Tell me...

oh boy here we go… Explain to me, a Gen-x’er, how it’s my fault you suck at life? My kids who are I-Gen are doing just fine with their college degrees. Makes ya wonder… https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/tests/personality/locus-control-attributional-style-test Locus of control refers to...

...has in this day and age. A lot live in their parent's basement. They either have a dead end job or they owe their soul in financial aid for a college degree that wont get them very far. They have little life experience and still depend on mommy to take care of them. They are basically...

Actually I do for my areas of expertise medical and technology. Salaries are comparable in Silicon Valley and NYC, ask me how I know. P.s. If you’re mediocre in Silicon Valley you’re mediocre in NYC. Sucks when you’re not credentialed properly no matter where ya go. My opinions are based on...

...Phd are even better. You're simply not even getting past the recruiter and or HR. When I was a hiring manager I did hire people who were IN college, and some of them never finished their degrees until I beat them into submission to do it. The reason is that while you can get into jobs...

...technology will take over the employment sector and how many fields it could potentially render obsolete. Chat GPT is literally able to write college level papers for students, I've had several people mention how when they have papers due they don't even write anything themselves and...

That's a huge reason why the liberal arts programs should be avoided for the most part and this is something you are unlikely to find in the STEM fields. I knew a person that majored in Microbiology and minored in Anthropology that discussed this. She mentioned that one of the courses for her...

I definitely agree with your part about graduating vs not graduating. I think there are way too many people who go to college that are otherwise unprepared or would be better off pursuing something else. However, I feel that unless you are able to get into a very technical field and do well in...

...fired? Any suggestion outside a student's belief system becomes a trigger which turns into a complaint. Trigger enough complaints, and the college prioritizes their client money... I mean students... over the professors. I'd be happy to hear contrary evidence, but I just see critical...

...if you separate students by SAT score (and grades). High scoring students are more likely to graduate, and can land high salaries in STEM. College is worthwhile for them. For low scoring students, they are unlikely to graduate and less likely to find college worth the cost. "Students who...

...become more competitive in a very tight labor market, which was a trend that continued on well past this. People didn't really start seeing college for what it is, a profit generating mill, until after COVID. During the pandemic, everything went online and the courses were often times...

Great thread I mentor a couple of guys that are Gen-Zers(in crypto and life) and those guys are further ahead than I ever was at their age One Is 28 years old has been a millionaire for a few years, has traveled all over the world and typically dates hot chicks even though he only is 5'7, but...

...30s. With the Millennials, it was uncommon to see a woman with a bachelor's degree or higher have a baby before she turned 30. Gen Z isn't old enough to be doing this yet. It's unknown if they are going to do "Last Call Babies" like the 1980s born Millennials have. Good. College is a scam.

...a massive motivator for men. The inability to get poon causes men to drop out of society. Multiple posts in the thread below are about my college sex experience. Part of why I went to college was to get laid during college. I also wanted to get a degree to get make money after college and...

...A number of my high school and college friendships have dissipated for a variety of reasons. The most common one is relocation. I have had relocations and most of them have had relocations.

Yes, if there is one thing that a classical liberal arts degree - and by extension any college degree in general - imparts is critical thinking. There will always be a need for a certain portion of the population to be degreed, just not as many that are getting degreed today. Of course, the...
