When I went to the University I got into a special program which cannot remember the name and built my classes around my internship. I liked College very much.
I hope others had a good experience in college? I know College alone does not help one get a job but most places do want College grads.
I know experience helps too.

So do you take courses from your work to upgrade yourself or to learn new things?

I attended a local college not with the intent of getting a degree. Instead I took courses to train for a job. Wish now that I had stayed the course and got the degree.

Did the courses help with the job? Could you go back and get a degree?

@Hannihar I did get a job in the field I studied for. I was an administrative assistant for about 15 years.
I do not plan on going back to school at this time. I am ready to retire!

15 years is a long time to be in a job. Did you like it? That is nice that you are getting ready to retire.

I dropped out of college but still learned a good deal and am very grateful for it.
I also went to business school and trade school.

I should have hated my Statistics professor but I am already forgiven her. I love Statistics so when I submitted my thesis I applied what I learned from my minor subject Statistics.

I enjoyed my college years and was a good student. I'm done for good now. I did get a Masters, 6th year degree, and 30 credits beyond.
Most of my son's law firms wouldn't hire lawyers unless they graduated from Ivy League or the top 5 law schools in the country.

I did not go to college to learn how to do one thing, However, I learned many thing with experience of doing them.

I have said at times that college was the best 4 years of my life. You learn to make decisions for yourself. You mature socially meeting people from different backgrounds, you make friends, learn from many areas of study and form your own opinions and philosophies. For me, it was a very rewarding experience...
