where are these "decent salaries" you speak of? all the college kids i know are making complete crap and the ones i know the USA have no job.

businesses are paying the people with 4 years experience over 4 years in school now. it has always been like that dont be fooled please.
its just a fact that just to get into the door for a lot of jobs you need that piece of paper. It may be totally meaningless and the person who has it might know nothing but its just what employers do to cut down on the amount of applicants.

Of course not all college/university grads go on to make good money. The big problem there is if everyone is going to college/university and everyone has expectations for a certain salary, well there are only so many of those kinds of jobs, even less right now, and obviously a good chunk of people will have no choice to settle for less at least in the temporary.
