RE: Too many college students?

[PLMASON]

Richard:

I think that there are two flaws in your posting.

One, the relative return to a college degree has been increasing since the
early 1980s, i.e., the college graduate - non-college graduate differential 
has been increasing -- especially for people with advanced degrees.

Two, undergraduate degrees are designed to teach people to think, i.e., to
develop analytical skills. Accordingly, specific majors aren't that important
per se.

peace,
