You can only learn so much about humanities before you realize you're 100k in debt and no applicable skillz with which to make money money money moooonaaaay.

  3. WTF?! K State is highly renowned in big money making industries of sales, manufacturing, sciences and research for Food & Fuels Ag, Animals, Engineering, Bio-medicines and DOE special classifications. The Little Apple's colleges (now labeled a university), made some hicks (and big city slicks) real rich!

  4. Doesn't matter where you go to school or what kind of degree you get. What matters is WHO YOU KNOW. Anyone will tell you that. I've worked with so many "connected" people who couldn't find the restroom with a map, but they know someone who protects them. So all you college kids better get networking, or face the unemployment line.
