Depends on how you define value. If you're looking at ROI it's very dependent on your major. Comparatively, NCSU is cheap and offers a wide variety of majors along with decent to high ranks in quality of degree.

Stuff like this is probably a better measure though when it comes to what your degree is actually worth.

just means tuition will get hiked

I'm an American
the quality of my education can be extrapolated from my salary
I only learn to earn

Like I said, it depends on how you define value.

And before you start spewing drivel like, "you can't put a price on education!!!1" let me go ahead and say that actually, yes you can.

If you want to learn purely for the sake of learning, which is laudable, you had better figure out how to pay for it or find someone willing to pay for it for you. However, most people pursue education with an end goal in mind, whether that is career oriented or other most education has some overall purpose.

oh I know better than most that you CAN put a price on education

9/27/2012 2:43:04 PM

I only learn to earn

"North Carolina State University at Raleigh Location: Raleigh, N.C."

Seems kind of redundant to list the location when Raleigh is already in the school's name.

9/27/2012 4:25:29 PM

^Based on the fact that this is a shitty school.

9/27/2012 4:48:07 PM

my nc state degree has roughly the same value now as this



[Edited on September 27, 2012 at 6:40 PM. Reason : they were made at about the same time, so it makes sense]

9/27/2012 6:40:07 PM

I swear when I started school here (1998) we were somewhere around 50th in the national rankings. Now we're what, 120? Go us.

9/27/2012 6:46:01 PM
