You can parse this argument forever on what 'college' means vs trade school etc. But rather than be caught up with semantics,-- higher education, whatever and however you define or categorize it, is always the investment with the highest ROR.

It depends on the degree but you are more likely to get a good job if you have one.

Steven Puderbaugh

The country will always need educated people: writers, scientists, mathematicians, musicians that no vocational school can educate.

It provides professional training that will last a lifetime. I completed my Bachelor's degree and Master's Degree and has served me well throughout my life in employed and personal growth.

Worthless us you become a Dr.

I have NO respect for the "technical" people that come from college engineering schools. They are nothing but a bunch of overeducated techno-computer nerds who think they are better than the rest of us.

The only reason your Master's Degree serves you well is because society only "counts" formal education. Case in point with yes #1. I understand the need to ascertain that person can perform the duties of his or her chosen profession, but another demonstration could as easily suffice.

Only your mom! Whether bio or adopt. But how about you go visit? Give her the card in person! But card is nice.

Tina Bouthillier

I only sent cards to my mother and grandmother, they were the only mother figures in my life

Caryn Erdberg

To honor her and show love and care.

A mother Should receive a present and/or card from her child (regardless of age). But, it is a really sweet Bonus for mother to receive one from a child not her own!
