[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]College is not about job training[/b]. Anyone can take programming classes. Coming out of college you want critical thinking skills and an ability to communicate effectively. Most companies will provide some level of training for new hires anyway.[/quote] For anyone who has to take out a loan it is. Maybe not for the DCUM crowd. [/quote] +1 Go over to the Politics page and see the numerous posts from people weighed down by their college loans, and who are begging the government to forgive the loans. College is too expensive now to be used to just develop critical thinking and communication skills. The exceptions are for students from very wealthy families or those who can obtain a substantial scholarship. (On the other hand, I work with an excellent and well-paid programmer who obtained his degree in Latin, and doesn't regret the choice.)[/quote]
