So what is the actual point of a college degree? I pay all this money, and for what? To find out facts you can easily google? I bet the internet has made 90% of all degrees redundant yet companies still refuse to hire anyone who isn't a four year. To be honest we should scrap the whole system and replace it with certification criteria and exams.

To make you less pleb. Only a handful of professions NEED a degree.

This
Nobody gives a fuck how qualified you are because there are a dozen other candidates just as qualified
If you have no connections you will never land a position at somewhere you'd actually want to work

I got a job at fortune 50 by applying on indeed. I get head hunting offers from LinkedIn at least once a month. “Connections” is cope for people without talent.

You learn quite a bit about yourself and about the world. It takes time and effort to get that piece of paper. Some are easier to get than others but you still went through the experience.

A great majority of successful people are stupid and untalented, so clearly not. Being a bad person who networks is by far the biggest advantage in life, after looks. Talent and intelligence are disadvantages if anything because no one who has those things wants to waste their life working a job.

Because kids are graduating high school without being able to read. If we fixed primary and secondary education to actually teach, we would need to send so many people off to university.
