Re: Has anybody here ever quit grad school?

Hopefully this doesn't take this thread off-topic, but the NYT just published this article about the current situation for law school grads:

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/09/bu...me&ref=general

I realize you're not in law school, but a lot of those issues, I imagine, exist with any graduate degree (or perhaps even bachelor's degree). I don't think it's necessarily a revelation that students are over-optimistic about the career opportunities that their degrees will afford, and perhaps it is unfair to criticize colleges for a nation-wide employment problem. But a lot of the number-fudging and misinformation mentioned in the article is simply unethical.
