<p>Re: “college is the new high school” and its more recent adaptation “grad school is the new college”</p>
<p>God help, although I realize that this is a growing perception among society in general.</p>

The key at graduation is to sufficiently differentiate yourself from your other, degree-holding peers.</p>
