I don't know if this has been posted here before, but I've seen a lot of the threads from fastlane members who feel that college is not worth the investment. The author is the former Secretary of Education under Reagan. He mentions something that I have seen a lot throughout the debates on this topic here on the forums- that anybody can get a better education free from the internet today than most universities provide, things like that.
If you're somebody who already has their mind made up, this book isn't going to change anything, although it's still pretty entertaining.
However, if you're someone like me (18 year old student, beginning freshman year in the fall) then it may be pretty eye-opening to you. My original plan was to do 2 years at a local college while living at home, then transfer and do 2 years on my own at a larger university. Now it's more along the lines of 2 years locally, then going out and gaining experience in my desired field.
Anyway I'd recommend the book to anyone that's young and interested in the fastlane, but is also a bit unsure about their future.
