Went to Michigan State University straight from High School, got a BS in Dairy Science on the 5 year plan (I worked). I wasn't a traditional student in the fact I commuted from the farm everyday. When I graduated the college degree could get me a job that paid almost what I was making pulling wrenches. Tried to buy a 40 across the road from my folk's place couldn't find anyone that would loan me $13,000 to $14,000 to buy the land (1982), farmed the folks place, ended up selling corn for $1.99/bushel the lowest I ever remember seeing it. Was the degree worth it? Well yes when I joined the Air Force I was able to go to OTS and get a commission, but then again if I'd enlisted instead and served as a 431 I could conceivably have an A&P now and might be doing something I enjoyed a little more and probably have a pension or gotten a better buy out. The cold war taught our military a very important lesson don't EVER win a war, if you do they'll call a peace dividend and lay you off and rob your VA benefit package.
