Besides, it keeps countless college students off the unemployment rolls and makes Hussein's [FAKE] stats look better.
"Made" 98% more. And went 100k+ into debt. What does that work out to?
I think it is worth it if you don’t go to trade school, open your own business or join the military. If you try to work with just a high school diploma, I think the road you have will be much harder than someone with a degree. Again unless you want to be a Professor or only want a Bachelors, stay way from the psychology, sociology, woman’s studies, etc. degrees.
Only because a USA college degree is worth a little more than a high school diploma was 50 years ago.
Is college worth it? How many of this year’s college graduates had a job waiting for them that’s not at a Starbucks, Target, or at other retail outlets.
Maybe in monetary value, but college students are more likely to receive an indoctrination than an education in 21st century America.
Study sponsored by the American university system?
NYT? Sorry, not worth reading. Math is most definitely not the friend of any MSM jokester-journalist....as has been amply demonstrated by them buying the Obamadork collection O’Clowns’ claims on 1) the economy, 2) unemployment, 3) Obamacare, 4) the VA, 5) Benghazi, 6) the so-called melting in Antartica (when ice amounts are actually at record levels), and so on.
Ain’t buyin’ it, NYT. College is a reasonable gamble for techno-types, and not a bad bet for those lib arts folks who actually studied something above third grade level. But, for the vast majority of the clowns emerging from our institutions of politically correct indoctrination, their borrowed money could just as well have been thrown into the street.
This is the biggest load of s___t out there. The more I see, the more I am convinced that college isn’t worth it. It is completely overpriced and churns out kids who know nothing. Now going to the right college and taking the right major is definitely worth it. But simply “going to college”, taking a major that you really don’t understand and that is not marketable, and then drinking your way thoguth college, is pointless.
High school grad choices:
A) Go to a trade school. Become a plumber. Make $30/hour and have a constant supply of work.
B) Go to college. Rack up $100K in debt. Receive liberal indoctrination. Try to fnd someone who will find use for your degree in Political Science. Become a US Senator for 3 weeks when you are nominated as the Democrat candidate for POTUS. Become POTUS.
See? The Obama “no experience needed” plan can work for everyone.
I went from working god awful hours in a bakery with split days off to doing engineering work in an office behind a computer Monday - Friday and weekends off. Sure, I’ve got student loans. But I also make more, own a house and actually have a life. My loans can be a drag sometimes, but they will eventually get paid off. And my life now is 10 times better than it was. But I also thought about where a good market was at and didn’t just go to college for the sake of it and waste a bunch of time and money.
Because most employers have drunk the Kool-Aid and actually believe that colleges turn out fully prepared, plug-and-play employees requiring zero employer-paid cost for training.
I am of the school of thought it is better to have a college degree that to not have one. Generally speaking college graduates do have higher incomes and lower unemployment rates than non-college graduates. That all said, the costs have skyrocketed in recent years. Here is what I did to get through college and not pile up a mountain of debt:
1) I selected a public university, not a private one.
2) I selected a university near my house and commuted to school.
3) I avoided excessive partying and fraternities.
4) I worked two part time jobs while working my way through college.
5) I bought only used textbooks.
6) I kept borrowing to an absolute minimum.
I still think if college students followed some of this, they could keep their student loan debt manageable.

Never believe anything from the NY Slimes, LA Slimes or the ComPost.
The job market demand for instant unemployment degrees IUD’s, the so called soft degrees, started going down hill about 3 decades ago.
The lack of demand for IUD grads has increased since the melt down and will continue. Why, their worthless degree brings nothing to the market place.
The lack of demand for IUD holders is so bad, the liberals in power are pushing for very high cost minimum wage salaries. Why, because most IUD grads can’t find a real job. So they will try to become $25/hour minimum wage bozos trained to ask, “Do you want to king size your order?”
That's about to end. The wailing and gnashing of teeth among liberal college professors is going to be deafening.
