allegedly cornells hotel school grads do the best outta college

i dont think any degree is useless unless you truly made it a point to learn nothing

but it goes without saying that different degrees potentially open doors to different job/career opportunities which may pay differently

and different degrees may have a different price tag associated with obtaining that degree

while i think the notion of simply studying what you love surrounded bu other people studying the same thing is nice, i dont think thats a realistic goal that everyone can have. a lot of people need to consider what has the best financial return given the least amt of time/money inputted

degrees like psychology or biology are sort of useless rly if you dont go for at least a masters or phd

Room temperature

we are talking about degrees given out by institutions, from my perspective its these ivy league universities that make education motivated by profit in the very first place with 6 figure certs, and they by no means come from a modern, neoliberal school of thinking
so to put it like its the person who pursuing a degree is at fault for having financial expectations isnt right,

you think there would be this much pressure to make a decent salary right away if universities werent driven by greed from the beginning?

Tell that to your kids going to public school getting their asses beat for always bringing noodles for lunch

anyone with a brain would know there are degrees with less worth.
The question is are you willing to learn skills/ make connections that will enhance your "worthless" degree before you graduate? Or are you going to just be a clock in clock out type person in college and expect a good job after college?

Communist manifesto go brrr

they told me my chiraqology degree would be useless now i work as a social media manager for trap lore ross

Ideally you should be able to go to school for free and learn whatever but that’s not real so i’ll always recommend people do stem instead of anything else

im proud of you?

Communications and psychology not useless at all. So many jobs in those fields

Have a history degree and that s*** pretty useless tho

Never having kids...

I have a friend that have masters in history and he’s a gym teacher in elementary school making 70k as a start and gets summer off

i went the wrong path in life got damn

Man I’m saying

Sometimes I just feel so lost

graphic design — I did it and got 5+ years experience working in it but I can't recommend and I would choose something different if I could go back

• shrinking industry, my last full time was outsourced to cheaper overseas workers (becoming easier for companies to do in digital age)
• low pay relative to similar careers
• very few options to develop to higher positions in a company and no rewards for growing your skills

I feel like graphic design is nice cause you can always freelance.

Yeah have a masters in (political) history too man

Becoming a teacher actually easy af w the degree, but thats the one job i dont wanna do lmao. Difficult finding something else tho

Even if it were reduced in cost or free (which it can be) you still don't want to waste 4 years doing a degree that want get you a job.

everyone shouldn't go to college in the first place people can learn trades, military, or just go right into the workforce

Good decision if you think money isn't everything

this.

also people get communications and Communication Studies mixed up . 💗

Can work while doing it though
