Congrats... you just proved yourself to be an idiot. No college graduate is ever "guaranteed" a job or guaranteed to be good at any job because of their university. Nobody said, "if you go to riddle, god will give you Chuck Yeager skills". No. They give the classes, teh training, the internships, and the oppurtunities. IT IS UP TO YOU TO MAKE THE BEST OF IT. If you are soo truely sorry for going there, you probably didn't make the best of it. You probably just scooted by, doing the bare minimum just to get the grade and came out just as dumb. If you regret the price tag, then as you stated, you should have gotten out when you thought "it wasn't for you". And to blame it all on your advisor is like saying you only went to one car salesman to buy a car. To make life decisions.... relying on one person shows more of your knowledge then what advice is coming out of your advisors mouth. If a doctor said you had to have both your legs removed to live, would you only trust that one doctor or get a second opinion? Same thing on colleges, choosing one or staying in one is just as much a life altering decision. And who knows.. maybe your advisor was still stuck in 2001 post 9/11 mode where NOBODY was hiring and it seemed the only way to get a job was to sacrafice your first born and he thought Riddle and Military were the only other avenues (according to him).

You made bad decisions dude, and your blaming the school. Its really you.
