[quote=Anonymous]Whn thinking the value of college look at the military. Why do college grads become officers? Why not just make good enlistred people officers? All the services do that a little. Marines most of all. But if you want to be promoted you need the college degree. Why? Because you have engaged in studies that have made you think -- regardless of major ----- made you place things in context, made you think of the bigger picture, increased your reasoning, made your mind open to looking at things in different ways. That is why in theory why college is wanted for people to be officers. Being a History major at a T25 does not teach you how to lead Marines up a hill. The Marines can teach you that. But it does hopefully mena you are a better thinker.[/quote]
