Personally I would not have gotten any value of university in COVID times where there is virtually no 'campus life' and extra curricular.
I've heard this from a lot of kids going through this and I would not be surprised if that's the main driver versus this article's main point of short term work $ versus long term career $.
One of the interviewed kids said "he was tired of remote learning."
I can't find any surveys just googling around if anyone has a source?
for me, education alone would not be worth private school $, or even University of CO money (not science or maths). I barely learned anything from my major subject classes.
I learned a ton from living on campus, doing my sport, student government, being an RA, interning and then working on political campaigns. probably some HN bias I think most here are probably more self starter, more intelligent.
Plus college is about learning about yourself. Hard to become an independent adult when you're living in your parents house doing Zoom all day.
