I have a piece over at NRO in which I again argue that college degrees have been oversold in the U.S.
The title may mislead, though. I’m not advocating keeping anyone out of college, but only that we should stop trying to dragoon everyone in. With stiffer academic standards, I suspect that a significant number of students who are in college only to get an easy credential (and have lots of fun) would do something else with their post-high school years.
