Unless that degree is in STEM or is at least STEM-adjacent, it's not worth the paper it's printed on tbh
and are completely valid lines of employment
I went to college to get a degree, it took forever because i refused to take out loans. Now i have my reward, 2 useless degrees and no credit
well it depends
even psychology can be valuable after a fashion
@nobuyuki smh
Free/cheap trade schools is something I wouldn't object to. But not collages in their current state.
sociology is always worthless
but mental health is a big deal
if you have a high enough degree
likewise behavioral studies
Sociology is a marketing degree in disguise
and stuff along those lines
@leavethisbotnet they don’t need to be free since they are pretty cheap to begin with. Just take out a loan and pay it off when you use the knowledge you earn there
Free trade schools are what unions were supposed to do
unions werent supposed to do anything
Giving it out for free takes away the responsibility of it
the original conception of a union is nothing like the abortions they are today
Psychology is something I'd consider STEM-adjacent; if you can avoid the politics it's based on patterns and something approximating scientific rigor
unions are like medieval guilds
lol
@Lucienne d'Anwyl yeah the only use of the union I’m in is to get me good healthcare
And it is pretty bomber
@Eirshy theres also things like business
and other economic stuff
which has its uses
@Gustavus Adolphus I woudldn't necessarily be for it.
Just saying, if you want to start giving out free education, start with trade schools
especially in regards to training to deal with economic and business standards and regulations
Economics is an applied math degree by any other name
the federal codes are so byzantine
tha having a formal education in them is extremely helpful
and lawyring itself
is also very valuable
The thing about college degree are, you can't just skip ahead to the final test just to get it done and over with for job purposes
Legal stuff is definitely stem-adjacent. The study of the legal world is honestly equivalent to the study of the physical world
They are literally a money sink used to filter out people who don't indebt themselves
And non rich
they frequently provide training and such
But I have to go make sure you degenerates get your sex dolls from amazon on tine. TTYL
they're also indoctrination centers
