The degrees most blacks get are not worth the ink they are printed with.
It's like hiring someone with an honorary doctorate to run your science lab.
Me neither. I was fortunate to have the opportunity, provided by my “working poor” (that’s a family joke, since they were working and were poor and never took anything they didn’t earn) parents to attend college. They valued higher education and encouraged us kids to work our hardest to attend. Something they didn’t have the opportunity to do.
We have 4 kids and one is in college now. Three more to go if they so choose. The opportunity is there for them if they choose to use it. I’m pretty sure the other 3 will go (senior is definitely going so it’s really two down and two to go for us).
I wouldn’t trade my college years for anything.
“I wouldn’t give back a second of my education, and am considering going back and getting a bit more.”
Go for it. I’ve got two Master’s degrees and I am contemplating going for my Ph.d in Industrial and Organizational Psychology. You can never learn enough.
