o fukkk we big brained up in here

I was going to go into law but decided against it

Shoulda stayed in law

We need people to fight the chosen in the courts

Science degree is so much cheaper and has funding for grad programs though

Becoming a lawyer is like $200k

Imagine if all scholarships were only for worthwhile degreez

Especially govt funding

Ikr imagine how much funding there would be

More like imagine how few people would be getting assistance for degrees ;P

WHICH WOULD BE FINE

If I were a leader I would make non practical education illegal because it is a net drain on the economy

Yeah imagine if we privatized student loans

Would be real nice

College prices would drop

We have private student loans?

I mean the government not giving loans to people getting degrees who will never be able to pay them back

you could always get a loan from a bank tbh. maybe at worse rates but still

They're way worse than govt student loans. Interest rate on govt loans is really generous

Like as in no federal loans

Right but it's so easy to get government assistance for people who couldn't get private loans

^

And like, it shouldn't be easy to go to college

Close to half of Americans go to college now, right??

That's dumb

College itself is a big dumb meme

europe does college right tbh

Yeah. No private company will give a loan for some bs degree

Hard disagree

Now the thing is, most good paying jobs need a degree, even a dumb one.

Like my liberal arts school (I'm in Comp Sci and it's pretty legit) is like 'you can get any job with any degree!!!' and I'm like 'lol nope'

I like how you can get loan forgiveness for being a teacher in the US

Imagine being a high school teacher

And teachers bitch about low wages

I had a friend who wanted to be a teacher. The dude was massively jacked up on how virtuous he felt about it

Yeah it’s fucking cringe

He taught black kids inner city at first

my teacher got mad at me because i was talking about the teacher strikes and she interrupted so i just called them bums

To be fair, the system does kind of suck for teachers; they're screwed with wages and debt and stuff. But it's like, it's not actually that hard to be a teacher. I had some seriously stupid people who were teachers.

Lmao

my classrooom had a speaker that said "STEM should include liberal arts." I was the one of very few to disagree. I'm postgrad
