Knowledge is free, but college is not. The older I get and the more people I meet, the more I see how little connection there is between basic degrees and intelligence.

Knowledge and maturity can be gained through various paths in life. Whether one sits in a classroom or not, someone dedicated to learn will learn while someone just looking to coast by will coast by. A lot of people have gone to college not due to a love of learning, but because it was expected of them. Sadly, it shows.
