"Most people who enroll in a university look forward to earning a degree that will open doors for them to well-paying and secure jobs. Government reports show, however, that only about one quarter of those who go to college earn a degree within six years a dismal success rate. Even so, does that degree translate into a good job? Note what current research and studies have to say. Going to Harvard or Duke [universities] won't automatically produce a better job and higher pay. . . . Companies don't know much about young employment candidates. A shiny credential (an Ivy League degree) may impress. But after that, what people can or can't do counts for more.

Newsweek, November 1, 1999.

Most colleges are seriously out of step with the real world in getting students ready to become workers in the postcollege world. Vocational schools . . . are seeing a mini-boom. Their enrollment grew 48% from 1996 to 2000. . .. Meanwhile, those expensive, time-sucking college diplomas have become worth less than ever.

Time, January 24, 2005.

Projections from the U.S. Department of Labor through 2005 paint the chilling scenario that at least one-third of all four-year college graduates will not find employment that matches their degrees.

The Futurist, July/August 2000. 

In view of all of this, more and more educators are seriously doubting the value of higher education today. We are educating people for the wrong futures, laments the Futurist report.
