Have People Strayed Away from the Real Purpose of Education |
|
I am curious to see what other people have to think on this issue which is hotly debated. College is now much more of a social event, 4 year long sleep away camp, for many students then it is a place to learn. Is it worth the 100+ thousand to send your kids to a sub-par university if they are going to end up partaking in unskilled labor anyway? Is a college degree the new high school degree?
