I have my bachelors, but out of the literally 800 job applications and 6 interviews, only ONE has asked about my college experience.
I now work at a warehouse making overtime, and I can assure you, they couldn't care less about Organizational Psychology or the Diagnostics and Statistics Manual V4.
I know more than a few people who've never went to college yet make the SAME amount as me....one person my age makes $16 an hour without a degree......
College is 100% useless.

The university system in the US is incredibly top heavy. The entire school program is designed to tell you that college is the next step when you are done with traditional school, but for most students it really isn't and there is really nothing in place to promote alternatives. As a result of this, hundreds of thousands of people enter adult hood with crippling debt and an employment situation that just doesn't have room for them.
