Supply and demand.

If someone's willing to pay $200k for an accredited degree in "clubbing", someone's willing to offer it.

Hey, the nightclub industry is business. With the right education (however obtained) coupled with talent and tenacity, one could make a LOT of money. $200k might be a bargain ... probably not for most unmotivated students, but those willing to do the work of learning, proving, and executing could reap rich rewards.

College is an investment. Make a stupid investment and expect to lose everything with no return. Make a good investment, and perhaps work a little while you are in school, and you’ll leave with something that is an asset to you the rest of your life.

I hate big government but here’s a regulation I’d like to see.

All public colleges and universities should be required to publish potential employment and salary information for each degree program they offer. This information must come from an objective third party source just like your credit history.

In other words, next to “Bachelors of Arts in Studies of Gay Political Leaders” I expect to see:

Job Opportunities: 0
Potential Salary: $0.00

Depends on a lot of variables, most notable what you want to do. If you want to be an accountant, engineer, doctor, lawyer, professor, business manager, vetrinarian, astronaut, officer in the military, banker, or a bureaucrat, you probably should not quit college. If you want to be a stay at home mom, auto mechanic, HVAC tech, ship fitter, coal miner, retail clerk, salesman, or you have no idea what you want to do, you are wasting your money.

I have to assume you have to be 21 to take this course but then again, colleges seem to be above the law sometimes.

Stay in school. Most jobs require a Bachelor’s Degree today and that includes most low wage job. Getting a degree shows the company that you can finish something you start. You guys probably were supporting kids quit high school back in the day. You are going to end up having children in poverty if you keep up this anti-college nonsense. My kids are going to college or into the military and that is it. There is no way I would support getting a job out of high school....what do you think 10 years down the road they are gong to be able to do? Sure a minute few individuals do very well with just a high school degree. But you guys are acting like those idiots who make their children practice playing basketball from birth 24/7 because they MIGHT get into the NBA. Does not make sense at all.

Still not as good as Northwestern University’s sex toy class. You get an A if you put the batteries in right. If you put the batteries in upside down, you get to go to law school.

There’s nothing wrong with going to college, so long as you don’t slack off and get a degree in something completely useless like Transgendered Studies.
