Same with me when I went back at age 23. When most students in university today already don’t give a #### and are just there because it’s expected of them, I don’t see why we want to push even more to young people into that path. We’d just be completing the transformation of university into a mandatory extension of high school, while eroding standards and devaluing degrees even more.
