Sorry, but I’m not all that impressed with the college graduates of today, especially those with advanced degrees. I don’t find them particularly smarter or all that useful in the real world. I work in the environmental engineering field, and those with more than 4 years of schooling, Masters in this or that, generally are those that take forever to complete a project, are lacking in common sense & their work ethic leaves something to be desired. Long years spent in schooling - the university setting and such - does not automatically transform that person into a particularly productive and useful member of society. In fact, many times just the opposite.

That was very judgmental…and I believe unfair..Our kids know Students that are whip smart and speak multiple languages…
And common sense? Argggg..Do you know any college kids? errrrrr
