And why you are at it, also get a certificate in something techy along the way. Is college the right path to succeed? With all the layoff's and an economy still stuck in the downturn or at least struggling at a pseudo bottom, the question of college as a way to make it through the hiring process is something that you should be thinking about.
While I have a vested interest in people going to college, that is not what the thread is about; the thread is about what the potential earning power is for college graduates. You have seen the statistics; they are everywhere, that college grads earn more than people who do not have college degrees. I am not selling anyone a particular college, what I am looking at is the ability of a college education to get you in front of a hiring manager. With many companies looking for college degrees, this is the best time to try to find a college in your right price range, with the degree program that you want to follow.
One of the conversations I have been following over on FriendFeed is talking about going to college. College has been a huge benefit to me, and Louis Gray also points out that College has been a huge benefit to him, both on his personal blog, and in a thread started on FriendFeed (subscribe to me or Louis, we get into interesting conversations) as shown in the embed below.
