Timing Is Everything

The College Fix is a publication dedicated to reporting about college faculty and students. It writes about predictions the percentage of job offerings requiring a college/university degree will continue to decline. 

Employers begin to believe they aren't getting their money's worth hiring graduates. Degrees often don't bring specialized knowledge applicable to the firm and may bring woke attitudes for which the firm has no patience.

The other DrC and I spent the bulk of our careers as university faculty. The deterioration of higher education we've noted in the two decades since we retired is substantial. 

We both believe we got into the career at an excellent time, and got out before it went completely crackers. We were there for its glory days, and got out before the hard left turn - what unbelievable luck.
