UGA's longest road trip this season is to Jacksonville, 270 miles.

It's in a whole entirely completely different state.

On average, just 58 percent of students who started college in the fall of 2012 had earned any degree six years later, according to the National Student Clearinghouse Research Center.

Oh yeah, plenty don't complete, but rarely because they tried their absolute hardest and just failed out.

true, because colleges and universities are giving more and more students diplomas to make more and more money

There is an online quiz (I fill them out sometimes, for fun) that today asked about PI:



In mathematics, pi is the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its ________?



46 percent of the answers were correct. 51 percent "guessed" radius.



Kollege isn't for everyone.

Oh, and 62 percent of responders knew which network aired Magnum P.I. There is something wrong here, people.

When I think about that, I'm glad I'm getting older. Snowflakes are going to be in charge someday.

When I was 20, the folks my age thought things were getting worse because my generation was all goofy hippies and worthless.

A fair number, I can't quantify that.  We had no engineering except for ag, so that is a factor.  Most people got business degrees and that has not changed.  Education was popular along with polysci.  Computer science was pretty popular, UGA had a large computer complex for the day.

https://www.princetonreview.com/college-advice/top-ten-college-majors

My first daughter majored in French and English and has a very good job as a "senior web developer".  I had to memorize her job title.  The other majored in whatever but went to law school and now has a jam up job in New Braunfel, TX, however they spell that, making nearly as much as I did when I retired.

My son would be 33 today, I was idly musing about what he might be doing.  It's a sort of a dull but persistent ache.

There is a shortage of engineers and scientists right now. Every person I know who is trying to hire cannot find anyone. The headhunters are making a killing right now.


I've got 4 snowflake nieces in Cali who majored in art history - two at Stanford, one at Dartmouth (now at Harvard in grad school, for art history) and one at Washington. But, they all have trust funds. Big ones.
