So, basically, these people decided "hey, college, dunno if it's right for me, probably isn't, at least now, since I have no clue what I want to do with my life. However, I shall totally spend as much as possible to get a degree."

There are reasons that the community college system is being built up in several (many? I know CA at least is doing it) states.

I attended community college for precisely this reason, I had no clue what I wanted to do right after high school and didn't want to spend a lot of (my parents) money on an education I might not use. I ended up leaving school and working instead, but I think it was a relatively inexpensive way to figure that out and I'd certainly suggest it for others
