Everyone has their own opinions on things, so I'll throw mine in the mix on the having a degree discussion as opposed to the kids letter to the ADG.

I think we (society) have gone completely overboard on the "Go to college, get a degree and get a great paying job" spill. There are far too many people getting a degree these days that have no business being near a four year institution and it's watering down the "college educated" product.

There needs to be way more emphasis on specialty training or vocational school because the average high school education in this country is not producing people that are prepared for university level learning.

It's also creating a lot of "Degree debt" for young people because the level of job they could have gotten 10-15 years ago is now filled by someone that has a post graduate degree. That bachelor's degree recipient ends up with a low paying job that didn't require four years of schooling and $20-60,000 worth of debt.

I know, tldr
