Slashdot Mirror
Is Graduate School Useful in Today's World?
An anonymous reader wonders: "gradschoolstory.com has an entry on the Top 10 Reasons to go to Graduate School in the Modern World. Why did Slashdot readers go to graduate school and what did they get out of it?"
I don't have any advanced degrees. Just a B.A. in Psychology and I can inform you that your signature is a cry for help. It isn't funny. Especially because drinking and posting to slashdot alone on a Friday night almost certainly means that you (well, technically we) are self-medicating. It would be illegal for me to charge you for the valuable psychiatric assessment I just gave us. Since in this state I must have a PhD to do so. Luckily there is nothing to stop me from billing people $100/hr as an IT consultant even though my degree is in phrucking psychology.
