While I would agree that a degree in comparative literature or history probably isn't as likely to land you a job as a degree in, say, computer science, it doesn't seem fair to assume that those who have fled the country to escape their student debts are automatically dumb losers. Nor do I expect that attitude to inspire a sense of "responsibility" in those who are considering to emigrate. It seems to me that the so-called "bottom barrel" students would drop out rather than successfully complete a bachelor and then a masters degree.
