‘Voices of the defenders of grad school. And me crushing them.’

August 30, 2011 By Kathy Shaidle

Penelope Trunk:

6. A degree makes job hunting easier.

It makes it harder.

Forget the fact that you don’t need a graduate degree in the humanities to get any job in the business world.

The biggest problem is that the degree makes you look unemployable.

You look like you didn’t know what to do about having to enter the adult world, so you decided to prolong childhood by continuing to earn grades rather than money even though you were not actually helping yourself to earn money.
