For some students, it’s still a good choice that leads to a successful career after graduation, but for many their degrees are worthless pieces of paper. Choose the wrong program and graduation is more likely to lead to disillusionment and debt than a steady paycheque.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Yet parents, guidance counselors, and politicians still push higher education as if it’s the only option for building a secure future.
