it isnt, but nowadays 'finding onesself' in College is an expensive endeavor. There has to be a plan. Kids dont get to really get to enjoy not having that pressure, taking College classes in HS. Having to hit ground running, knowing their general major before they hit campus.
Things are so expensive now, you have to hit a bullseye. No room for error.
You have degrees that actually gave you a marketable skill. Many degrees today just don't. If you are pursuing a STEM degree, law, accounting, medical, yes, college is valuable. With many other degrees, kids would be better off getting four years of actual work experience in a field that interests them.
