> Not entirely true. If you’re going to school for business admin, liberal arts, or some BS degree like that you’ve wasted either your parents hard earned money or you took a huge ass loan so you could party for 4 years. In today’s economy you need some sort of technical degree to earn a decent job out of college.

Yeah i don’t really agree with that. I do think college is a waste if you get any of those degrees at a shit college. College is all about networking and building bridges. I do go to a trade school in a way (pharmacy). By the time i graduate ill have done 12+ internships and have worked in 3 locations. Maybe its different for me but i think education is vital. I’d take a business admin from yale and all the debt accrued vs. working right out of school any day just because the degree has value.
