[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree - this is our plan. I have been saying for a few years that I think grad school is the new college, so it makes sense to go to a state college and save some $ for grad school. [/quote] I honestly don't understand this logic at all. So many grad schools / grad degrees produce kids with poor outcomes. So many jobs/industries don't care about a grad degree whatsoever. This is another skewed DMV perspective that worked for you, but you can't rely on it holding going forward.[/quote] I don't interact with too many people without post-grad degrees. Came to DC from NYC, so I guess it’s the crowd. My oldest is interested in engineering - and my dad and his dad were engineers and both had master’s. My dad’s company paid for him to get it (probably my grandfather’s did too). But I don’t think either of them thought it was worthless. [/quote]
