girly -

Great post. Very positive. I confess I'm having a difficult time mustering anything happy to say about this. I'm feeling like a grandfather looking at those damn kids and their rock music.

What exactly does a "film studies major" do for a living as a graduate - Blockbuster cashier?

What the fuck? Student loans to get a film studies degree?!?!? Clearly someone whose parents pushed them into college as "the next step in life", as opposed to someone with true ambition and wanted to pursue a career.

Sorry, this is all fairly harsh. I'm sure that degree will have a huge ROI in the real world - even with the 4.5% interest on the 20 year student loan.
