I agree with this. The landscape when I was a student was very 'get a job' friendly and very much not 'employ yourself'.

- JasonMoyMN79 15y agoThe reality is, though, that it's not realistic for everyone to start a company. Most people can't do it, or won't succeed (just as we know that most startups will fail, it's simply a fact). So I actually think CMU's approach is more realistic, since most people WILL end up just getting a regular job. If you look at your graduating class, I'm sure that the VAST majority of those people have jobs. I don't think that the vast majority are internet billionaires, or even millionaires, or even self-employed.
