RE: UKNM: RE: University v. Drop Outs

[Marshall, Jeff]

My tuppence worth on this thread, started by the great rant attributed to

Larry (I don't really care if it is true or not - made me laugh anyway).


I must be doing something wrong - dropped out, experienced life, then

dropped-in and slogged through an Open University degree that opened up a

new door for me, but did little else.  I went through the door opened by the

degree and then used the life experience subsequently, but I'm still not CEO

of a multi-million dollar international company.  Perhaps the quality of

life experience and/or the quality of the University were not up to scratch,

but hey, I enjoyed both.


Like life, there is no "staff answer".  Do what feels right, but most

importantly, take ownership of the consequences.
