basically if you are not in a STEM field, college is not worth it.
I know a physician who went to Princeton undergrad and she said outside her science classes it was mostly just fluff.
And Princeton is supposed to be one of our best universities.
Unfortunately more and more professions are requiring at least a four year college degree to enter. Many years ago one could apprentice in an accounting firm and take the CPA exam. Now to be eligible to take the exam one must have at least a BA or BA degree. I understand that some states require 5 years of college to take the exam.
