Especially the over 40s who don't want to or plan to go and just went to work out of high school. And in spite of what society may say, are happy with that decision.

Sometimes I wish I had gone but that would be purely for the social aspect of it. The truth is I was done with school PERIOD. I still have an executive level job and make just as much as I would with a college education and I am only 26...

maybe the older people going back to school have read the research indicating that new learning experiences increase longevity and significantly reduce the incidence of Alzheimer's.

Going to college was the best thing in the world that I did, even though my marks arnt that good, and its expensive, the whole experience changed me for the better.

I dont go to university for marks, I go to university to learn

College doesn't teach you anything useful. I wasted a chunk of my life in college and I wish I had just gone "out there" and learned practical skills in the workplace instead.

Give it time, give it time. The young are now shunning education especially further education. With time, you'll be called 'avant garde' ..
