I very much appreciate George Leef’s work detailing how higher education has been oversold in our society, but do I note a contradiction? George says that a college degree is not necessary for earning a good income, but he also admits that at present it’s a credential that provides access to certain fields that would otherwise be closed off to an aspirant. Would he agree that as long as that is true, it behooves us to encourage as many young people as possible to go to college, so they won’t find themselves shut out of certain fields?
