Possibly you were among the lucky 2,000 applicants, the elite 6.2% of the 35,000 pool, who received an admissions offer from Harvard this year. Yet, just how lucky were you? Recently, numerous articles have appeared questioning the value of any 4-year bachelor’s degree, whether from Harvard or not. One of the skeptical parties, ironically, is Harvard’s School of Education, which recently published a study that claims a four-year college degree isn’t for everyone. Even more ironic, just as the best basketball players usually leave college, after a year, to jump into the NBA, some of the most successful Harvard undergraduates don’t graduate (Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg come to mind).
