I’ve been writing on this topic for a week now, and it has really struck a chord. Most readers seem to agree that a college education is what you make of it, and if you need to pay out of pocket to attend an elite college, it may be a better idea to attend a state school, or get your degree in increments.

This is the question on everyone’s lips, and the pressure will continue to intensify as we move toward May. Despite the fact that there are myriad websites devoted to summer internships for college and grad students, there are still too few resources out there for teenagers.

Early this week I wrote about Gen Y college debt, and put the post up on Brazen Careerist with the question, “If you could do it over, would you attend a less expensive school”. The question really struck a chord.

There’s an article on the front page of today’s New York Times entitled Burden of Loans on College Graduates Grows.

I just read an excellent book called Wellbeing, by the authors of StrengthsFinder 2.0 and the Gallup Poll. These guys have written great books about identifying your strengths so you can figure out how to use them in your career and other areas of your life.
