Re:College (Score 2)

Like others that have replied to this post, I think it's still really important to go to college, not just for the piece of paper you'll get at the end, but for the life experience. Granted, you won't make much money during those four years, but you will make good friends your own age, become independent, and learn about looking after yourself and how to relate to other people. I don't think you can get this same experience from the workplace - people are there for different reasons. My advice to anyone deciding between an IT job and a college degree is: take the degree. You will enjoy it far more in the long run, and you'll never be able to have the same experience again. College is totally different when you return as an adult student.
