>Haha you paid for an education when books are free!Wow... He really got him there.
>>215480764>im smart i just dont try hard, not a good test taker, etc Will doesn’t play the game very well.
>>215480764>haha you paid for an education you can afford while I work on a construction site OWNED
>>215480764which books?
>My Marxist adult daycare is better than yours!
>>215480916Everything is free if you can run real fast
>>215480764>wow, a degree from harvard? this is impressive, you can start this monday>i know you read a book but do you have a degree? uh, you don't? umm, security?
>>215480764No-one thinks paying for college is too be educated. You do it for three reasons>Party and fuck chicks>Network with people that you can hit up for jobs or business deals in the future>Get a piece of paper that companies now consider mandatory before employing you
>>215480988the last two jobs I had didnt even ask my degree, nobody really cares anymore. When I was starting to work in late 2000s you had to bring the diploma and everything
>ivy league school uses text book>crappy state college uses the same text book>text book is free on libgenLiterally no point in college
>>215481100Large coffee please.
>>215481126college is an immersive experience more than just the books you read
I did most of my undergrad at community college (zero debt btw) and now I'm literally being paid to get my PhD at a top 10 school. My dick is 7 inches btw
>>215481126College is about commiting to deadlines and leading group projectsCan't get that from a library
>>215481126I guess the difference is that on ivy league schools there are the top of the field professors and higher bar to entry. Also, you cannot just do anything to get your degree through, like you can from state collage. Then there's the whole applying the knowledge aspect...
Americans will defend spending millions on useless education
>>215481252Good man, sucks to live in the third world though. In my country they pay for you to go to collage, so I'm getting paid while doing my degree.
>>215481297>useless>Gets you six figure jobs...
>parents always told me "just a degree, any degree, most jobs don't care what degree you have as long as you have one">almost every job I come across wants a specific degree (accounting, business, etc), and of course they all want a minimum 3 years experience>they either want a specific degree, or they don't care about your degree at all and just ask for a high school diploma where exactly are these elusive "just have a degree" jobs? I can't find them anywhere
>>215481334>Gets you six figure jobs
>Oh you memorized a book passage? Well how about this book passage I memorized, buddy. How ya like them apple?!
>>215481100The only time you need it is after graduation. Once you have some enjoyment history in the relevant field no-one cares about your degree anymore.
>>215481126>>215481293The point of going to an Ivy League school is to network with the type of people that go to Ivy League schools.
>>215481493I always feel like such a chad when I come onto this site lol
>>215481384That was a sign of the times. Back in the 70s when jews were making the initial push for the education scam, annual tuition was less than $2k for a private university. The meme on tv, film, and everywhere else is you NEED a college degree, any college degree.Some boomers and gen X still remember that. In the 00s and 10s it became needing specific degrees. Business, finance, whatever. And you'll tell your kids the same. They need X specific degree to make it.But you'll be out of touch by then (hell, by now) because the degree that employers are looking for is that they don't want a degree, they want experience.
>>215481384This was true up until the 90's. Now a bachelor's degree is the equivalent of a high school diploma. It's just a mandatory prerequisite when you enter the workforce. Postgraduate programs are heading the same way. Having a phd used to mean you were a legitimate expert in the subject and made a worthwhile contribution to the field. Now feeding a doctorate usually just means you spent too long at college instead of going into the real world, writing a dissertation on some meme shit like transgenderism in colonial Africa.
> just put the fries in the bag, guy.
Is this the movie that started the trend of poverty tier retards saying "they are smart, just lazy"?
>>215481728Absolutely thisEven better if you get work outside your area because now you have the equivalent of another degree
>do you like apples?>yeshow do you respond without getting mad?
>>215481802Every generation has winners and losers. Stop playing the victim or you will become the victim. Either way, it’s not my problem.
>>215482128f...faggot! then cry and run out of the room while i shout "its not my fault! it's not my fault!"
I feel like its not necessarily that you have a degree that matters, but the fact that a degree means you likely have student loan debt. A company knows you have a bill due every month and that means you won't randomly quit.
>>215481493White harder.
>>215481126The point of college is getting a degree and networking, not learning
>>215483068h-hot
Reminder that this scene wasn't just about getting Will to meet his GF or to show how well read he is or to show working class is better than preppy class. It was about huge leftists Damon and Affleck promoting to the masses the subversive Marxist texts they had been brainwashed with. Damon was actually neighbors with Howard Zinn growing up.
>>215483731raj got filtered
>>215480764That boy is wicket smaht.
>>215484319matt damon is friends with howard zinn who rote the people's history of the united states which is anti american commmie slop
>>215481728>Enjoyment historyWhat if you hated it though ?
>>215484319Correct. I’d be mad if I was Indian also.
>>215483731I remember hearing about this recently too but I can't remember where it was that I heard it
>>215484319>>215484903Saying I'm Indian? I'm American and White as it gets.
>>215483731happy diwali saar
>>215481126>>215481293Aside from the networking and prestige, a lot of the value comes from spending the formative years of early adulthood in a competitive environment among the country’s most intelligent and ambitious people. You can’t overstate how much better it is to be with elite human capital rather than in the collegiate wasteland or on discord.
It’s called “credentialism”.“I’m wicked smAHt” doesn’t go over so great on the resume.
