This college scam has been going on for decades now. When I was in high school they told you that if you did not go and do it you would basically be a complete failure. There are some fields of work where it is required. The airlines will always require abstract things to be hired. When you have half of the country making less than 27,000 dollars a year and someone is putting 300,000 to 400,000 dollars on the table at the end of the day, you're going to have to do what they want.
