What are the purpose of these fluff graduate degrees that you can't get a job in . You can't even teach graduate school with these fluff degrees.

Maybe just the love of learning? You don't need to make it a career just because you are interested in the subject.

Sure- our students have a love for learning . Or we’ve convinced them they require college to succeed in life (choice of majors not necessary). Do we put the same emphasis for certifications that will give them a pathway to financial independence like - dental assistant, radiology tech , sonogram tech, paramedic , police officer, air traffic controller, LVN, mechanic, welder , firefighter, electrician? Instead we focus on pushing college for everyone vs offering the 70% who won’t graduate with debt and a worthless degree.

It’s to build the government bureaucracy. My state’s commission on teacher credentialing tried to pass a motion allowing social justice and critical studies majors to be able to receive a multiple and single subject credential in social sciences without requiring CSET tests. Because applied sciences and critical studies are the same. It’s a job placement program for government DEI/SEL/Wellness and Flourishing departments and teaching positions at high school, community colleges and universities. It’s to delay or inhibit families and lower standards for entry to those who can take one online college level math class for the 40 + majors ending in studies that has no market demand. That’s what the government is for right now?

Hey guys, need some advice. I was fortunate enough to get the Consortium fellowship at Ross but am also stuck on the CBS waitlist and am still planning to apply to Wharton in R3. Assuming I get into CBS/Wharton, is there that much of a difference between them to forgo scholarship money? For context, I want to get into product management at FAANG/fintech with pursuing MBB as a plan B. Thanks in advance!

I would like to hit fire between 40-50. Currently 27, 185k total comp (125 for me and 60 for partner). Like my job don’t hate it don’t love it. Does an MBA make sense? I’m guessing it could take me to 170ish with that schools I’m looking at but wondering if the 40-50 retirement range makes an mba not make sense since I’d only have 10-20 years to save vs 12-22.
