Most of these recent graduates aren’t “underemployed”. Instead, they are seeing that a college degree is now worth little, and comes with a mountain of debt. The college degree has been devalued by: (1) the idea that everyone must go to college regardless of whether the student is college material; (2) worthless majors like sociology, Women’s studies, and African-American studies; and (3) the fact that most students are coming out of college with minimal skills because college is now more about indoctrinating than educating.

I don’t fault the students for this. Most don’t have the maturity at that age to realize that they have been hoodwinked for hundreds of thousands of dollars for an increasingly worthless degree.

totally agree with the worthless major argument... that and worthless undergrad major followed by worthless graduate degree.

want a job after college....in high school be advanced in Math... math and more math..

and learn how to write well, grammar and spelling count..

finally learn music...learn it well it will help you stand out and get scholarships

why parents will pay exorbitant amounts of money for worthless degrees i have no idea

College has simply become a scheme by the bearded liberal professors and the liberal education system to defraud younger generations of their life’s earnings. They steal the future wages of the youth for their own profit in exchange for a mere promise of a better life.

Fools! They each hand over tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of their future earnings to this liberal fleecing machine. Even professions such as doctors walk away in life-long servatude to the debt that they may carry with them to their graves.

But, the liberal elites cheer these “marks” on as they themselves rake in $100k to $500,000k a year in salaries off the backs of these fools, laughing all the way to the bank. Many of these professors themselves could never hold any other job beyond “teaching”.
