| Absolutely not. Total waste. Nothing but regret about it. I graduated 13 years ago, and I'm still paying on it. The valuable "education" came after, wasn't related to the school curriculum, and was mostly learned on the job. Some professions require the pedigree, in those cases, you have no choice but to play the game. If you want to get educated, take the courses that align with your chosen vocation, don't bother with following a degree track. It's not worth the money/hassle. Also, and this is key, marry what you learn with hands-on doing of the stuff you're covering in class. Get into an internship/apprenticeship. Learn a trade. The "you have to go to college to be successful" mantra is a lie. And we've saddled ourselves (and our kids) with this idea and the horrendous debt that comes with it. It's a terrible, terrible idea.
