Does anyone with a degree in fashion design and merchandising go on to be anything other than a shift supervisor at the Gap? Seriously, if my kid wanted me to put them through college for that degree, I’d have reservations. I’d probably just go buy a midlife-crisis-mobile and consider it a better investment than paying for a dum-dum degree.

I know someone with a Fashion Merchandising degree from Kent, and she's been a highly paid sales executive in the clothing industry for years.

Having a midlife crisis over having only a high school diploma?

Frankly, with NE Ohio being a place where most people don't have college educations...yes, I think that's probably the case. We live in the Bay Area and if you don't have at least a bachelor's degree here, you're not even human. I'm serious!
