I got my degree in French in 1991. It was not helpful professionally. The experience of college was positive, but it didn't serve me professionally in any longterm, meaningful way. Follow your heart. I did it in great part because of my passion for languages.
The biggest problem in my mind is unrestricted electives. I have an accounting degree, and it had 33 credit hours of unrestricted electives, meaning that it was a three year degree that they made us take other classes because three year degrees are considered worse than four year degrees, even if you fill that last year with PE.
I received my education between 1953 to 1973 . I read many of the comments to this video. I think I must have gotten a better education. Perhaps of late, language arts are not taught as rigorously as when I was in school. ....
Apprenticeship is definitely a better choice than college or university for a lot of people. You get paid to learn by a private company and often have a job you can walk into at the end of it with no dept. The problem is the incentive for schools is to set up as many people as possible to go to college because that's what they are graded on. The incentive problem again.
Apprenticeship is in crisis as well because of various compliance reasons for why it is discouraged like higher regulations for having more employees and what qualifies as an employee and such. Only place where you can get apprenticeships now by and large are small businesses with less than 20 employees because after that you gotta comply with other rules.
Absolute non sense. As a GI Bill recipient and a successful millennial I can personally say not all GI Bill precipitants are passed trough.I went to a pubic school and most GI bill recipients get fasfa and TAP benefits which pay for school. I was on the deans list even one semester. Neither the military or college has thought me professionalism its something you get with work experience. The military is one giant welfare program.

If you replace _college_ with _healthcare_ in this video, you can see why our healthcare is so terribly expensive.
