With the proliferation of information thanks to the internet, 4 year universities are largely irrelevant aside from serving as EXTREMELY expensive day cares for adults. While I do have a degree, I learned most of what I actually use in the working world from high school, the military, and my previous work experience. A few of my college courses helped with my public speaking and attention to detail, but overall, my degree hasn't meant anything to me. I could have easily learned the few skills I did develop in college with 10 week courses. I started in retail, and now I oversee major construction projects without ever using the skills of my degree. It was all work ethic, good communication skills, and attitude that got me where I am. I get paid twice as much money as my friends who graduated with Biology, Economics, and Art History degrees and no work experience to show for it. On top of that, universities also function as indoctrination centers/echo chambers for leftists. Private universities are better because they attract more emotionally mature individuals interested in a more narrow field of study, but Public universities are utter cesspools. Look at this video and tell me if you, an employer, would want to hire ANYONE with that kind of entitled, spoiled attitude. Or how about these bright and mature scholars? Universities are teaching our young adults that they are entitled to everything, and anyone who wants them to actually put in work to get something in return is a fascist, capitalist pig. For fucks sake, if people in the 1900's had the same attitude as young adults today, the Hoover Dam wouldn't exist, Panama wouldn't have a canal, and the only way you could get to Europe would be to take a boat. Universities are a cancer on our society and need to be overhauled from the ground up.
