- Bartweiss 8y agoOr part of one? Heck, there are a lot of people still paying off debt from ITT Tech; you can get Pell grants reduced if the college closes while you're attending, but not private ones.
- levesque 8y agoCollege degree, working a 9$ / hr job. Not saying this is impossible, but probably not the case of most college degree holders.
- jandrese 8y agoDepends how many millennials you talk to.
- fragmede 8y agoMaybe technically most, but with an estimated 25% of collet graduates being overqualified for their jobs, the situation is all too common, especially for those outside if STEM. http://time.com/money/4658059/college-grads-workers-overqualified-jobs/ http://time.com/money/4658059/college-grads-workers-overqual...
- JoeAltmaier 8y agoMy young friend has a PhD in physics; published and respected. Drives a bus.
- dplavery92 8y agoThere's something missing here. How long ago did he finish his program? Is your friend limiting his search only to jobs in academia? Is he capable of getting a security clearance? What's your gauge of "respected"? There are many government and industry jobs for fresh Physics PhDs right now.
- JoeAltmaier 8y agoGave up on academia after a year; took another year and a half to find a high school physics teacher job
- copperx 8y agoYeah, that makes absolutely no sense. There are MANY office jobs that pay better than driving a bus. Does he have mental health problems?
