About 'debt for college students'|Student Strikes, Debt Domination, and Class War in Canada: Class War and the College Crisis, Part 4 by Andrew Gavin Marshall








By               using               the               plight               of               asbestos               cancer               victims               as               an               analogy,               we               can               more               fully               understand               the               plight               of               college               students               who               graduate               with               unmarketable               majors.

I               do               not               intend               any               disrespect               to               those               who               actually               have               asbestos               cancer.

To               the               contrary,               I               believe               anyone               who               reads               the               following               will               agree               that               asbestos               cancer               is               an               apt               metaphor               for               unmarketable               college               majors.

College               Students               Work               Hard,               Whether               They               Have               Unmarketable               Majors               or               Not
               Despite               what               Hollywood               films               would               have               you               believe,               most               college               students               work               hard.

Even               students               who               choose               an               unmarketable               major               (i.e.,               one               for               which               post-college               financial               prospects               are               dim)               have               to               put               in               a               lot               of               hours               at               the               library               to               earn               their               degrees.

That               is               why               their               post-college               plight               is               so               tragic.

Just               like               factory               workers               who               slave               away               day               after               day,               unaware               that               they               are               at               risk               of               asbestos               cancer,               college               students               with               unmarketable               majors               work               day               after               day,               unaware               of               the               risks               they               face.
               Why               Are               College               Students               (And               Workers               Who               Risk               Asbestos               Cancer)               Unaware               of               the               Danger?
               I               think               on               day               one               of               college               students               should               be               given               information               about               the               potential               financial               outcome               for               their               chosen               college               majors.

In               my               experience,               though,               this               simply               does               not               happen.

I               have               seen               many               students               in               a               variety               of               majors               (not               just               in               English               and               the               humanities               -               even               in               the               hard               sciences)               learn               only               upon               graduation               that               their               degree               will               not               pay               for               itself.

Like               the               foreman               at               an               asbestos-infested               factory               site,               college               professors               and               administrators               often               fail               to               inform               students               that               their               courses               of               education               might               not               be               lucrative.

While               college               students               with               unmarketable               majors               do               not               typically               get               asbestos               cancer,               they               are               harmed               in               other               ways.
               College               Students               With               Unmarketable               Majors               Have               A               Serious               Liability               (Analogous               to               Asbestos               Cancer)
               A               college               student               who               graduates               with               an               unmarketable               major               can               have               one               of               several               potential               liabilities:               (1)               an               inability               to               find               employment               of               any               kind,               (2)               an               inability               to               find               employment               that               meets               his/her               needs,               and               (3)               an               inability               to               find               employment               that               creates               enough               free               income               to               pay               off               the               debt               incurred               in               obtaining               the               unmarketable               degree.

While               these               liabilities               might               not               be               life-threatening               in               the               way               that               asbestos               cancer               is,               they               can               last               a               lifetime               and               inflict               serious               suffering.
               Just               like               a               factory               worker               in               an               asbestos-laden               workplace,               college               students               who               selec               unmarketable               majors               naively               go               about               their               business,               working               hard               to               earn               their               degrees               and               unaware               of               the               risks.

Then,               upon               the               completion               of               their               work,               they               realize               that               the               very               work               that               was               supposed               to               create               value               for               them               in               fact               created               a               serious               liability.

Comparing               college               students               with               unmarketable               degrees               to               factory               workers               who               get               asbestos               cancer               is,               therefore,               an               apt               and               useful               analogy.
