A highly overated pyramid scheme in which, in exchange for four+ years of your life, you get financially raped by the school bookstore, tuition office, and the american educational
system. And as a bonus you get a piece of
paper called a 'Duh-Gree' which you pin to your shirt so potential employers
will know why you are so stupid.
EMPLOYER: So why do want to
work here?
EX-STUDENT: Because I went to college, and therefore I am entitled to a high paying
job.
EMPLOYER: Of course. I think you will do well with us. Here is a corner cubicle where you'll spend the rest of your life complaining about why you never get a raise and dot.com dropouts are making more than you.
EX-STUDENT: Sounds great! The job world isn't so
hard after all.
