[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't care where my kids go to college as long as, at the end of the day, they can afford to raise their kids the way they were raised. [/quote] +1 [b]Many jobs are doing away with the stamp of college as a requirement[/b]. Hopefully, we'll go back to apprenticeships. Most of what is needed for any job is learned on the job. I have a PhD in STEM and I used maybe 10% of what I learned my first 5 years, everything else was learned on the job. Now 18 years in I draw on my experiences and business relationships, not anything from my education. As long as my kids can maintain their lifestyle AND, more importantly, get off my books, why do I care about an arbitrary piece of paper?[/quote] Absolutely and completely untrue. In fact it's the exact opposite. You can't even get a receptionist job at my employer without a 4 year degree. Top school heavily preferred. [/quote]
