I have met plenty of absolute morons with university degrees.
University is, for most people, a massive waste of time and money.
Not because they are stupid, but because going to university does not further their life goals.
It certainly didn't for me.
University only one of many paths through life.
We need to stop treating it as the only option into which we force everybody.
Plenty of brilliant people go into skilled trades, or into professional tracks. There's a reason Germany still has such a robust manufacturing sector.
We would do well to follow this in the US.
- pjmlp 6y agoSure, but at the same time there are lots of clever people that missed the opportunity to actually go, due to artificial barriers that consider them too dumb for university. Morons? There are morons everywhere.
