The article is really good but lacking in some intelligence. I wouldn’t have met my Asian wife if I hadn’t studied Linguistics and went to China to teach English after I graduated. I probably would have stayed in America and met no one, because I’m from an ultra-conservative religious minority. Your atheist, “dollars-and-sense” approach doesn’t jive with reality, whereas Catholic Teaching does. Lives, careers, college majors, are an organic whole. However, these choices are somewhere between how much money your family needs and you may need and what your God-given talents and interests are. Don’t think you’re so smart, reality is so chaotic that you won’t be able to engineer your own happiness – temporal or eternal. I know a Russian daughter of a Moscow investment banker, now a financial adviser. She’s miserable, selfish to the bone, and lonely, making however much money and about to be deported, last I heard of her. So much for atheism and socialism, you moron.

“A good degree from a bad school can turn out to be worthless.” This is so true! Damn! I wasted my 3 years in a useless college! I’m glad I’ll be transferring to a good university soon.

I’ve a BA in Political Science at UF and a JD from Capital- best choices made yet- everything depends on what one wants. Explore a thought just for the sake of the thought, and not only learning a trade? Youbetcha!
