A lack of a college degree is used by many corporations to underpay otherwise experienced individuals.

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.

Sorry, but I'm gonna disagree with you based on my experience.  Overwhelmingly, college graduates are lazy, don't know how to use the softwares for our profession and basically just paid for that piece of paper.  I have seen the best employees be from on the job training hiring practices.  My husband even says he will hire someone with actual experience over a degree and pay them well.

Statistically, the median income for men with a bachelor's degree was $66,200 in 2011. (Census Bureau)

Median income for men with a high school diploma but no degree was $40,050.

Of course, Bill Gates was a dropout, and countless art majors are working at the Waffle House.

It may not be true at your company, but nationwide the odds are still drastically in favor of the guy who hangs in for a degree.

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

"No Nothings?"  I'll spot you that one since I screwed up "there" vs. "their."

My degree was helpful in that I work with accounting systems -- but my degree was NOT in IT and I have to retrain everyone who gets degrees in IT since they don't know crap.
