Not to over-simplify, but I don't think one's social circle is enough of a justification for the astronomical cost of higher education. One can just as easily get involved in their community doing public service, attending shows, even just frequenting local businesses can provide opportunities to meet new and interesting people.
$60,000 to build my social club? No thanks.

- yock 16y agoThe point to which I replied indicated that you meet your smart friends at college, generally leaving behind most of your high school relationships. If you just happen to go off to school with one or two of those "smart friends" then likely you too are a reasonable candidate for college. You didn't go to college to build a social circle, you just happened to do so whilst you learned.
