[quote=Anonymous]In formal terms perhaps uneducated describes a person who has not had the opportunity of the benefits of a formal education.  However we have all known people in our lives who have graduated from excellent universities, but somehow didn't have a lick of sense or even have any sense of the world around them.

By the same token we have all known people who for one reason or another never had the opportunity to receive a formal education yet had great knowledge and wisdom.

Being educated is not so much a matter of the number of degrees in which an individual holds, but a matter of the quatity of knowledge a person holds and how they use it.

This being said, please know that the lack of a BA/BS Degree or higher will inhibit an individual's abilities to be hired and promoted into managerial positions.  There is no point in arguing whether this is fair or not; it's just the way our system works.

Decades ago many smart people were unfairly denied the opportunity to advance their educations.  Today, if people are smart, they'll go to college[/quote]
