[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting that criminology is one of the least regretted majors and sociology is one of the most regretted. Almost all of the criminology classes are sociology classes. A criminal justice degree is a waste of 150k because you don't need need the degree to get a job as a police officer. Furthermore, college doesn't give you any of the skills it takes to do the job, so big waste of time/energy/money.[/quote]

No education is a waste. The belief that college is a trade school is a relic of lower and lower middle class origins of our immigrant forebears. [/quote]

Sorry that made more sense when you didn’t graduate with 5-6 figure student debt and housing was affordable without a college degreed professional job. [/quote]

Sorry. You want trade school go to Lincoln Tech. It is possible to go to a decent college and get a real education that changes everything for you without 5-6 figure student debt. [/quote]

That depends a lot on your individual situation. Is college going to cost you 200k or 50k?  You can call it trade school if you want, but if you aren't learning any skills relevant to your job, I'm not so sure it's a good deal.[b] It's an antiquated and elitist view to think that taking a bunch of gen ed classes will make you a good citizen and a well rounded person.[/b]

Indeed and ironically this shows a lack of the critical thinking skills that all the liberal arts worshipers claim they got with muh liberal arts degree.[/quote]
