Honestly, if you don't care about the degrees (since you're never going to use them anyway), just get some decent books together and educate yourself.

Or find a really cheap college/uni/course

I do quite a bit of self-education as it is, but formal education offers a structure and format that I find enjoyable. Testing and writing offers me a challenge in critical thinking which forces me to consider concepts and underlying themes I may otherwise miss on my own.

And besides, all education is useful. Even a degree in basket-weaving.


English Assassin:
£8,300 for online degrees. Is that per year or total program? You're right, it is a little vague. I guess I would start making phone calls when I get to the point where I could actually attend.



General question to anyone: What is your opinion of distance education / online schooling? This method, though non-traditional, has exploded in the last few years and seems to be growing still.
