'Why go to college?'

<p>Brooklyn,
My S. has never gone to CC.
Yes, I deny every idea stated in post #54. I will not get these out of any books/profs/academia/media…etc. …and definitely not out of any college course.
I refuse to do so. </p>

<p>Do not forget about your own brain, it is very poweful, if we allow ourselves to use it. It is not just a sponge that absorbs ideas of others. It is a tool to develop our own ideas based on factual historical data (not utopian ideas of few others who put themselves above the crowd) and your own life long experiences.</p>
