I agree, that one was pretty weak. I thought it was going to be something more interesting, like "people who want (or whose parents want them) to go to school to learn something useful in the job market should go to a trade school to learn HVAC installation and not waste time and money on a liberal arts BA," or "the only college grads who see a material income benefit are those who go to reasonably competitive schools" or "why is it that so many of "colleges" are really teaching remedial middle and high school skills?"
Incidentally, if you like Bullshit, get Freakonomics. Very entertaining read.
