Having doubts about higher education? Maybe you’re thinking about attending college but wonder whether it’s worth the cost. Or maybe you’re already a college student and are worried about whether you’ll be able to get a good job in your field. You’re right to be thinking about these issues. The author says, “Probably the most important thing I’ve learned about higher education is this: you can get everything you hope for — and more — if you take personal responsibility for the design and construction of your education. The key is to be your own ‘general contractor,’ the one who puts all of the pieces of a higher education together according to a careful personal plan.”
