this post isn't really stimulating many comments now is it?

thatdarngirl #1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Well..it isn't really specific. Like what type of college degree did you get if you did go?

Wasn't there a thread about that recently?

thatdarngirl #1.1.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

I can't think tonight but I vaguely remember talking about something along the lines of careers.

I think this poll would be better if we could vote "yes" and "college is 4 losers!!!".

yodasucka #3 yodasuckaOG 2003

skaorsk8 #3.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

Which BCC would that be?

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002

the University of Southern Paramus. I went there for a year, just a rest stop on the way to somewhere else on the interstate of life.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

Cool! I got to the University of SOuthern Randolph.

yodasucka yodasuckaOG 2003

hahaha yes the University of Southern Paramus... basically, BCC is the 13th and 14th years of high school haha every one at my school goes there just cuz we can..

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

That's exactly what CCM is! I saw a kid I went to High School with and he asked me how I was enjoying 13th grade.

#3.2.1 dgiaimoOG 2003

That is so true...

ekulu #3.2.2 ekuluOG 2002

it's always nice to have a clean brain

I went to college for a year and then, since I had to pay for it myself... it got too expensive and time-wasty. I duno, i don't really think that college helps OR hinders your "career" ... there are plenty of college graduates working as landscapers and The Limited Too sales associates. Anyone could do that. Especially mexicans, mexicans are definitely real.

yodasucka #4.1 yodasuckaOG 2003

haha i FULLY intend to keep working at the mall while i'm going to college... but after I actully get my degree... theres no WAY that I would go back to working there haha

You might change your mind if you can't find a better job. A college degree is in no way a guarantee that you can get better employment.

tinser #4.1.1.1 tinserOG 2002

yeah, but it helps more then not having one...i mean some jobs you couldnt even begin to get a job in without a degree

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003

yeah, that can be true, and i didn't mean to knock anyone's college degree or whatever. I just think it's more about what goals you set for yourself and how determined you are to achieve them. There are people with Masters Degrees out there working at the mall, and there are high school dropouts that are millionaires. If you put everything into having a "career" .. you'll achieve it, whether it be pioneering of marine biology or acting or whatever. It's all in the mind and heart. It's not just about the piece of paper. Anyone can get a piece of paper. Look I'm holding a piece of paper right now. Ooh it's nice..

It also helps if you choose the right major. I'm kinda worried that I'm not going to be able to find a job if I choose not to go into academia since so many companies seem to want people with engineering degrees.

thatdarngirl #4.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

They are real..I wish I was one.

ekulu #5 ekuluOG 2002

I intendedto go to colege but pretty much at the last minute decided against it. HTe career i wanted i dont want anymore. So right now i guess i'd be happy with a good enough job to keep me goin. Perhaps i should go to a community college and get some training in a trade, that would be good. But really, i dont know. I oncetold my teacher that for me college would be a waste of timee and she was all outraged. I guess i still feel kinda the same way, jsut not so strongly. The IDEAl thing for me would be able to get a job where they train you to do it. Then I would havea good job and training in a trade.

skaorsk8 #5.1 skaorsk8OG 2002

in college, you might be able to take a typing class to improve some of those skillzzzzz you're always talking about :)

ekulu #5.1.1 ekuluOG 2002

haha. now i look back at my post and see what you mean, lol. back to school for me
