I firmly believe college is the biggest scam out there. There's nothing you learn there that you couldn't learn in 1/4 of the time with on the job training. It's perpetuated because you can't get a job in many areas without a degree and the government makes a killing on student loan interest. So colleges lower standards, let more people in that probably would be better served doing unskilled labor (nothing wrong with that) , classes are taught to the lowest student, and no actual knowledge transfer takes place.
It's a very expensive piece of paper. I honestly think we're the dumb ones for going, but we really don't have a choice in this society.

I completely agree that anything you learned while going to school you will learn about while actually doing your job (if not more). Really is a little depressing that a single piece of paper can make someone better than someone else in the job world.
