Went to trade school and got an Associates in industrial electronics/electricity,I would have loved to went to a big school but didn't really know what I would have wanted to do,I feel like I experienced some of the college life because I was always in auburn or tuscloosa on the weekends,I've worked in my field for 6 years but for the last 2 I have not,I'm fixing to get the opportunity to get back into maintenance at my current job if I decide to do it,the good thing about my degree is you can find a job and some high paying ones just about anywhere

Graduated from Gadsden State with a degree in Air conditioning and refrigeration. Im 26 now and make pretty decent money for people around here. I wasn't cutout for one of those 4+ year degrees and I get bored sitting in a desk all day so I went the Trade route. My girlfriend is almost done with her masters degree- There's no way I could of done that much schooling loco

Graduated from Bowling Green (Ohio) with a major in Secondary Education (Social Studies) and a minor in Political Science. Have never taught for a paycheck a day in my life. Now I am in sales. College was great and allowed me to mature while opening doors in my life that would not be available otherwise. I would love for my children to go to college when they reach that point of their life for that reason alone but anyone with common sense, average intelligence, and determination can go a long way in this world with or without a college degree.

South Florida, 93, BS Chemistry

Should have stayed and got my masters/PhD, but I needed to get out and make some $. Neither of my parents went, so I didn't have a lot of guidance, or understanding.

I went in to Chemistry, because it was difficult, and I knew that there would be little competition. The year I graduated there were 8 other chemistry grads, and over 2,500 marketing grads.

I would go back in a heartbeat if I could think of something that makes a lot of money with minimal hours working. I'd like to be like Yekrut and BrentM and get to hunt every morning of turkey season.

Graduated from AUM in 93. Took 7 years to finish. Got a BS in business. Started in biology but wanted to move out and get a full time job. Hard to take lab classes and work. Worked as a roofer, then drove a Budweiser truck till I got out. Night school sucks after working 8+ hours
