But with student loan debt reaching an all-time high of $1.2 trillion (surpassing credit card debt), and little research to support that the investment is worth it, I am cheating my student by not encouraging them to make the best choice for themselves. if this is higher then credit card debts then most students are being cheated. why get a degree when you can get a job that a person with a degree can get. teachers aren't supposed to do that, but for certain students it is a must.

The “underemployment rate” for young college graduates is 44 percent.
that mean college isn't worth it. if only about 50% get jobs then college is just something to bankrupt you. it doesn't help you with your life at all. getting a degree today means that it is just another degree to put on your bedroom wall. the degree isn't everything. it is your skill that matters. college grads have no insight for the future and think the degree would do everything. the conclusion of this is that it is natural why all these people would be unemployed up to today since of their debts to various colleges.

I agreed with that teacher about how college isn't always the best choice. most people can't afford to go to college and not all jobs required college degrees. families can't support high school seniors so high school seniors have debt already before they even have a job. it simply doesn't suit the purpose of going to college for a degree and not being able to get a higher paid job. i mean why go to college when there are other jobs that paid high and don't require a degree?
