In light of brendan's "the meaning of marriage" post, I want to ask for opinions on this:

the meaning of a college degree.

are you thinking of not continuing your degree?

i really think that my degree itself will mean nothing to me. i don't care about having a degree. i won't be proud of it, but neither will i be embarrassed of it.

what it will mean is that i'll be able to do things. i'll be able to do a 3-year M. Arch program instead of a 5-year B. Arch program.

and then in theory i will earn more money at some point because i will have a college degree. i doubt that having a master's in architecture will bring more money to me than a bachelor's, but finishing evil capstone (thus, graduating) will hopefully lead to me being an architect sooner.

if college isn't making you happy, and you don't see how a degree will make you happy/make your life in the future easier, then quit. (for good, not just a semester). you can always come back.
