Posted by AEM-7AC #901 on Fri May 25 15:01:40 2012, in response to Re: ARTICLE: New Normal: Majority Of Unemployed Attended College, posted by Nabinut on Fri May 25 12:40:30 2012. I am one of those "25 & up" unemployed workers who is attending college to hopefully improve my odds of a better than $7.25/hr employment.Admittedly, I'm in nearly the same boat, except that after years of procrastination, I'm going to push myself to go back to school. I suspect there are others in my boat who are of average intelligence, but aren't exactly sure of what we want to do, but we know that we have to go finish school for something. Even with a low worth liberal arts degree from a local public college, it still gives a better shot at the low end jobs in the $30K to $40K range around here whether they be in the private sector, non-profits, or government employment. And $40K per year with manageable student loan payments is better than $25K with none. |
