[QUOTE="Bed Wetter, post: 47261, member: 428"] Really?!?! I spent 5 years to come out with a business degree and that was about 3.5 years too many. College is nothing more than a very expensive way of finding out how much you already know. In business school I learned quickly that I was the sucker in a brilliant business model. I'm always reminded of Good Will Hunting when Matt Damon says to that college student, "your parents are paying 100 grand so you can learn everything I learned for $2 in late fees at the public library." If you want to learn about business, get a job. If you want to learn another language, get Rosetta Stone (really, it works. We used it in a couple Spanish classes that cost me $2,000 *facepalm*) Unless you're learning really specialized skills that require specific equipment or resources available only in college, just get on the Internet, maybe buy a book or two. If you absolutely can't figure it out on your own, audit a college class rather than pay for credits. As a national honor society member and former president of my university student business association, I'd be remiss if I didn't say: **** college. Signed, Slim [/QUOTE]
