What’s the biggest lie you’ve heard about college?

You will get a job if you have a degree

The two that stand out are professors would only accept papers written in cursive, and the only path to college is doing well in high school. The former isn’t true because of these things called “computers” and the latter isn’t true because of this thing called “community college.”

That it doesn’t matter if you don’t know what you want to study right away and you can switch your major at anytime. While parts of this are true, college is expensive. I switched my major after my second year and had to take a fifth year to finish my degree. It’s cheaper to take classes at a community college if you are unsure of what you want to study and then transition into university once you’ve decided. Don’t pay thousands of dollars to find yourself.

That you will somehow become Bill Gates if you dropout

Happy Cake Day!
