Things a U<direction>F Degree will get you

Oh man, look at the Payscale data on USF and GT. 4 key measures:

Return on Investment:
  • GT Ranked #10
  • USF Ranked #444
% of Alumni who respond that their "job makes the world a better place":
  • GT 47%
  • USF 0%
Average Early / Mid Career Salary:
  • GT $68,100 / $128,700
  • USF $37,500 / $60,400
Then the kicker: at the bottom of USF's page it says "Compare to other 2-year colleges." Based on average salary, they consider USF a community college.

A poor return on investment.
 
Tinge of embarrassment about decisions you made in high school
 
the knowledge that, if dropped in the middle of Florida with a compass, you can make it back to school.
