All told, some 17,000,000 Americans with college degrees are doing jobs that the BLS says require less than the skill levels associated with a bachelor’s degree.

Slightly off topic but 17 million times the cost of four years of college plus the opportunity cost of not having worked during those four years is a lot of money down the drain. The higher education bubble must be about to burst. Noone can continue to justify the costs of 4 year degrees in Critical Queer Theory, Marxists Womyn's Theory, etc.

President Barack Obama went to Occidental College as an undergrad.

Here is one of the courses they teach in that school :

COURSE TITLE: THE PHALLUS

The people at Occidental College decided that in the course of human events it becomes necessary for students to delve into the ‘signification of the phallus’ and the ‘relation of the phallus to masculinity, femininity, genital organs and the fetish’. It being self evident that the phallus occupies a central theme in the psychoanalytic theories of gender and sexuality, the course occupies a pivotal role in the Intercultural and Queer program. All this for a price of about four thousand five hundred dollars.
