You are talking about jobs in the one of the most difficult times in history. And what evidence are you talking about - becuase you and some friends have so called “been mislead” in thinking that you would be happy the minute you graduated. Your whining is really getting old. There are also Alot of people who have graduated and are perfectly happy with the education they have received and the job they have. And you keep bashing the Top elite schools. You have no evidence that your circumstance would have been different had you attended a less expensive less elite school. You have no idea what would have happened. You make alot of assumptions in your arguments - how do you know you would have been better off - you don’t. You are taking your circumstance today and thinking that your education failed you. You will learn in life in all you do - YOU ALONE make the difference - there is no one thing, one school or one person that can fail you.

And my son is at Northwestern pursuing a Chemistry Degree and he could get a job right out of the box with a Bachelors - what he chooses to do is his decision. He never looked at Northwestern for Politics or Government. You are taking your situation and making it like it belongs to everyone - it doesn’t - it belongs to you.
