Of my colleagues, the who is most successful didn't attend college at all. With the internet providing near free information we don't *need* college.
Sure it's a fun 4 years, sure you might meet someone nice, but it's not needed to live a full life.
In fact, I'd argue before attending college you should have to work a real job for a bit. Understand how money works, then blowing 60k a year to get a degree means a different thing.
With all of this in mind, get rid of race based admissions.
Maybe they would have been even more successful if they went to college?
The fact that someone succeeded without going to college says something good about them but it doesn’t necessarily follow that colleges are bad or that they’ve succeeded because they didn’t go to college.
My point is you don't need to go to college. I consider myself to be successful and this guy is definitely making much more than I am.
If college is worth it for everyone, why is there such a need for student loan forgiveness. If anything the market is self correcting since more and more people are skipping college entirely.
