Re: AW: FLASH: Is internet design with Flash possible? ;-)

[Al Rosetti]

On the Flash is bad/Flash is great debate....

Sure, it has it's good and bad points.... but why debate a professor from

Germany?  Like most of the so called "educated elite" his job shouldn't even

exist.  The University system is 95% B.S. & 5% percent real value.  This guy

is part of the smoke and mirrors.  The thought of teaching a program like

Flash in a University setting is utterly ridiculous.  If you want to learn

multimedia here's a tip that will save you (and society) plenty of time and

money...

Buy the software for $300, pop it in, surf the net, peruse the news groups

and in 2 months you'll be fine with it.  I can't think of a bigger waste of

money than learning Flash in college.  If you add up the total investment

made by the government, school and student it's probably costing around 2 to

5 thousand bucks to "teach" someone flash.  GIMME A BREAK!!!!

p.s.

On a related note for the University/design students who read this list....

I don't know what your professor's are telling you right now but once you

graduate none of your clients are going to ask or even CARE about your

education background.  All they want to see is your portfolio and client

list... in that order.  If you want to become an employee and make $10 to

$20 bucks an hour (starting out) a degree MIGHT help you land your first job

but... 5 years lost and a $100,000 investment is a pretty hefty price for a

job that only pays about 25 grand a year.  Forget the degree.  If you've got

nothing but a strong desire to work and the willingness to go on a dozen

(mostly miserable) interviews you can have that job anyway.... and best of

all.... no student loan to pay back, hehe.
