Is university still worth it? If so what are some degrees/trades worth going into?

For uni I would say anything medicine related, engineering,and geology are the only things that are still worth going for. Most of the trades seem pretty safe though.

I had to re-evaluate all the """knowledge"""" I assimilated during studies since my uni with most of it's scientific staff were fucking idiots smelling their own farts, wanking over each other's thesis and generally being a fuckingly awful lecturers. Save for few notable examples. They weren't teaching us how to be effective lawyers/lawmakers, etc. they were teaching us what given departemnt's sumamrized opinion on given subject is.
I should've become autistic engineer isntead.

I went to a 2 year community college and got an associate's in Computer Information Systems, which is basically an IT degree and would place me in the Mid-Tier category according to pic related. I was looking for work for about a year after graduation, recently landed a $52k per year job at a pretty respectable company. I owe about $35k for the degree, so my schooling cost less than a year's salary and landed me a decent job. I'd consider myself to have done fairly well, although I'm frankly glad I didn't spend much more on school than I did. I know plenty of people with four year degrees who spent a lot more than I did and are still working shitty service jobs. The assistant manager of the drugstore I worked at a few years ago had a degree in biochemistry or some shit.
However, I will also say that I was driving home from work the other day and saw a sign advertising a company that was hiring tilesetters at $42 per hour, which is almost twice what I make. For reference, when I was 21 I got fired from this gas station job I had, and since my Dad was fixing up a house he bought at the time he offered to pay my living expenses for the summer if I helped out with that. He had his friend who is like a general contractor of some kind doing most of the work, and my job was mostly to just run errands for him and help with simple shit. I mostly spent that summer goofing off and getting drunk every night, but tiling the floor and walls in my dad's bathroom is one of the things that guy was doing, and if I'd had the sense to I probably could have learned quite a bit from him. If I'd learned to do the tile stuff he was doing I could theoretically be making double what I'm making currently with no student debt.
In the end I guess there's a lot of different ways you can go, so don't beat yourself up too much over it. If you can get into a trade or construction or something I would say that's probably the smarter route to go, although that kind of work probably isn't for everyone. I don't think a college degree is the magic ticket to success it has probably been marketed to most of us as, but if you pick a sensible major and have a career path in mind you can generally do ok.

Get into practical trades or STEM. If you're going to study something else, like business, go abroad where it's cheaper. Learning another language is practically as good as a degree anyway.

I see.
It's just that when I was a soldier, my CO used to say that going as an officer in military was like going to college.
The only difference is they allow you to bring guns to school.

Interesting.
I bet a lot of the shit tier left or even didn't bothered to go in, with military being the fastest way to getting redpill and the conservatove values.

Like which ones? I'm genuinely curious where you're getting your info. Blacks can't into carpentry, plumbing, HVAC, electrician, or boilermaking. They flat-out don't have the brainpower for it. And even spics are only decent at construction because the builders don't give a shit anymore. And those jobs aren't going to be replace by automation any time soon. By which, I mean never, since whites are going to die out and take our coding prowess with us.

Most non-union tradesmen work in small businesses. The one place affirmative action hasn't been able to get any traction has been with the small businesses.

Alright, well let me know when that happens. I'm just trying to steer people away from wasting their shekels in a pointless university tour. If you think that $100,000 in student loan debt is a good choice because "HURR THEY'RE GONNA RUIN THE TRADES EVENTUALLY TOO", then more power to you man. But it wasn't something I wanted to do, so whatever.

>What is it exactly so I can laugh at you?
Political "Science".
Minored in econ just to get a breath of fresh air. God did I hate uni. Boomer aunt tried to convince me out of graduating a year early because of "the college experience." She and most boomers have no idea how fucking bad unis are today, especially in the social "sciences."

Dude, just act like the dirtiest, laziest, most grievance-ridden tomato-picking beaner this side of the Rio Grande, and you'll have universities tripping over themselves to give you a full-ride.

Well, am the anon from those pics.
Some of those disgusting assholes, including a girl who used to be my GF like 4 years ago, who has been my friend since elementary school, worked with the mostly liberal faggots at my school, Class-mates, Professors, etc.
They all went after me in everyway possible from Professors hiding vital information from me, to students stealing important stuff. I might not have been "expelled" as such, but it was certainly an effort to take me out, although they didn't tried anything physical, not that they couldn't, there was literally no-one on my side again.
Also, i am in another school know, far from the other one, but am having serious trouble there.
I used to be considered a prodigy back in the elementary and the middle school, but know i fell like i am on fucking drugs after half an hour in class, like, do you have any idea why?
I have got a situation in which i felt like my throat was closing itself and i felt like diying through the entire night, it happened for two weeks when i was in the other high-school.

Allergy? Bad air quality and mold? Just speculating, it's something you see all the time in local news - students complaining about headaches and being tired, someone checks the air quality and it's bad, tear down the walls and it's full of mold pumping out poisonous shit into the classrooms. It would be consistent with it happening after changing schools.
But if it's just you, then maybe not.
