- Society & Culture
Have you ever wondered what your college degree has done for you?
Well, so have we! It has been such a contentious topic that we decided to turn it into an episode! This week we're talking all about college education - our personal experiences as well as our perspective on how our parents viewed it. We discuss the investment versus payoff of matriculating at a name-brand school, both from an undergraduate and graduate level. We also dive into what we actually got out of education, whether it's actual knowledge or just street knowledge. Finally, we take a look at popular new forms of education and how that could transform the traditional Asian studies pathway into something more.
Tune in and educate yourself!
