You’re right, but I was making a statement about society more than individual students. It’s been a slow march. The demographic shift can be traced all the way back to the Morrill Act which started the wheels in motion for college to become a vocational endeavor rather than a cultural one.

I do feel that a large swath of jobs don't really need the college degree they seem to require. That sort of college-as-a-credential business model seems like a self-licking ice cream cone.
