I regularly rant to people about the merits of university and college educations and especially about how crap some of them are. This is consistently true of my field – humanities – where weak teaching, easy grades and appalling subjects that teach total rubbish seem to be becoming the norm. This essay/post on the issue of whether a university/college degree is worth doing is well worth a read.

I love that whole site, actually. I have been using it for my (fading) games as education project…
No. I am older and wiser and am allowed to unconditionally lecture youngsters on how they should live their lives.
So next time you give me one of your “Arts degrees ARE worth doing” lectures, I can ignore you?
