Agreed. I didn't have time for any of that because I had to work my way through college. I was able mostly to work in the field I was studying, so the work experience was far more useful than the classroom stuff. The only use I've gotten out of my degree in 25 years is when some idiot liberal starts yammering about how stupid Republicans are, I note that I'm a Republican and I have a magna cum laude degree with a fistful of academic honors, then challenge them to a game of "Jeopardy" on the subject of current events, which usually makes them pipe down and go away. I never got much out of my degree other than that, but anything that helps clam up a bloviating lib is probably worth the time and money.

You did hit upon one thing. Regardless of your ability or experience, you have to have the credentials in a lot of fields, and without them, you will go nowhere.

With them, even if you do not know squat, you can get a really good job regulating the folks who know what is going on...
