So you're upset that a listing that you created for the sole reason of being seen and generating a response is being made more public?

wat??

The cost of a college education is an overstatement of its value.

How many recent grads outside of engineering do you know? Now how many of them are gainfully employed?

Now how much did they pay for school and how much pay and experience did they miss out on by not working for the time they were in school?

I just went through the post graduate job cycle along with a huge batch of my peers and any of us will be the first to tell you that college is broke. The only reason I am employed is because of projects I put together myself, online, outside of the scope of a university education.

If you are looking to meet girls and learn how to drink to excess by all means college is a great place to do it. Otherwise college education in the liberal arts is a complete waste.

I had a friend in college who was on it and it worked for him, but he had the incredibly flexible schedule of a college student.

But if you did not have great flexibility and something unexpected comes up you could be caught with your polyphasic pants down and be nonfunctional.
