“I also had to sign off on an agreement allowing school officials to randomly check in on my house to confirm that my daughter lives there.”
You mean all parents have to do that? I thought it was just me since The Champs were denying being related to me.
My MBA at a public university was 1/5 the price and 1/10 the difficulty of my undergrad Computer Science degree at a liberal arts college.
Directly I am not sure if it has severed any purpose, although there was one job and one promotion it probably helped me get.
Stephen Hawking would be wise not to get into an astrophysics feud with me. I could kick that guy’s ass. I would start with a nuclear wedgie, maybe add a purple nurple or a swirlie, and just keep kickin’ his ass from there. That guy’s a wimp.

i watched :38 seconds :-/
“Did you watch the clip about probabilities that I linked yesterday? ”
Yeah, thanks again.
I don’t know if you caught it but I posted yesterday about that Professor who is well known for his astrophysics feud with Stephen Hawking.
I watched up to about 55 minutes where he was starting to get all crazy with the derivitives of complex wave formulas then I got distracted watching Jackass 3 where some dude was blowing one of those birthday party horns by farting into it.
Twenty years ago I applied to 4 law schools and was accepted. I would have had to study at night. I wanted to make sure that I was doing the right thing and interviewed many lawyers (lawyers at my company, friends, relatives, people introduced to me). I don’t know how many – 20-25 people I had conversations about different kinds of law, law school, their jobs, their job satisfaction.
Two things came out of my survey — almost everybody I spoke to (except for two people which happened to be my cousins and one friend) were miserable and that there was a real oversupply of lawyers. Another friend who was an adjunct at Brooklyn Law School took me out once for dinner with his students. He told me afterwards that he didn’t believe any of them would get jobs and that the ones that did would start at a salary which was extremely low compared to what I was already making.
So, I never went to law school.
“Law degree is not as watered down”
Sorry dude but that’s just totally wrong. TONS of people graduate every year from crappy third rate law schools with no realistic prospect of ever practicing law.
I agree with you about MBAs being watered down though. Unless you go to a top 5 MBA program it’s a waste of money. Law schools are a little different. If you’re in the top of your class pretty much anywhere you’re going to do fine. The problems come for people who aren’t in the top of their class. The further you get from Yale / Harvard the closer to the top of the class you have to be to get a good job.
Med school is the only undiluted degree. It’s hard to get into med school, and a medical degree from any accredited med school means something.
Everyone should become a designer. It pays big bucks.
