Skid's right, unless the University system changes drastically I won't want my kids to go to college. Learning a trade will be much more lucrative for them. The only time I would encourage them to go to a 4 year school is if they are fantastic at math and want to be engineers.
Personally, I think every academic program should be reviewed every 5 years and if graduates with that major aren't getting jobs the program should have its funding cut.
Tax payers don't need to be funding Poly-Sci, Women's Studies, African American Studies, or any other degree plan that doesn't lead to a job.
Schools should also limit history, psychology, and other majors to accepting only as many students as meet demand.
