Okay then, we shall see.

Here you have a go at Derek and cite Obviously making the point that University Degrees are a worthy thing to aim for.

This is news? That university degrees are something to aim for?
I swear, only on CF.

and go on to spout that he probably never went to Uni, spouting drivel about someone you nothing about
Then when it's pointed out to you that Derek did go to Uni, you post
So you by your own admission agree that that there are "worthless Degrees" or "Degrees of no use"

Pipe and slippers brigade right enough...

Pierre, of course there are worthless degrees out there !! Noone will deny that, there are plenty of them, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't invest in our future. Thats simply taking things too far, but a middle ground is probably needed.

Please advise what, in your, vast experience what degrees are worth their salt and what degrees aren't. I'm really interested to know.

I'm educated enough to not spend all day arguing with some people on CF, because it is quite frankly a complete waste of time.

Also, there's nothing like the fresh scent of CF member sarcasm to end the morning. In my...ahem..vast experience as you put it, I'd say the degrees worth their salt start with the science degrees, and then down from there. The more students we can produce that can excel in the sciences then ultimately the better it will be for us. There will always be plenty of students to fill the other slots in other sectors
