Maybe college is too expensive -- maybe it's expensive because there is a very high demand for well educated people. In other words, in my field, computer science, you will meet very few immigrants without a hard won master's degree or better. They are paying premium prices for these degrees, and they are getting the jobs that come with them. You can't simultaneously argue that the job market is being divided by STEM knowledge and that learning about STEM is a waste of time.
- tyrw 9y agoThis is a different phenomenon, as advanced degrees are much more likely to land you a visa. Hence the disproportionate representation.
