[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The grandmother stories are touching but let's remember that they grew up in a time when women were not necessarily expected to go to college.  Lots of smart women didn't in those days.  I don't think that experience translates as well to today when a college degree is the minimum level of education expected in many professional fields.

This is what I was thinking as I read through all the previous posts.  So OP, I was going to ask, "How old are you?"  I had 3 grandparents who went to college and 1 who did not; were she still alive, she'd be 84 today.  So, if you are in this age group, ok.  Any younger than this, however, I do think people should at least get a 4-year Bachelor's.  [/quote]

Not everyone has access to college. Especially today.  [/quote]

While technically that is true it is also true that college education is far more common for women and minorities than it was a generation ago.  Enrollment at leading universities is far more diverse.  Financial aid is significant.[/quote]
