Holy shit that's bad. It makes me feel better about not finishing it it was already kind of bad when I went and got significantly worse since then. I'm not sure I'm missing out on lunch other than whatever healing my brused ego could get from a framed degree.

I definitely think the entire education system, K through 12 and University alike need to be fundamentally rebuilt but employers accepting it as qualification for a job is a necessary precondition. If the federal government were competent they could simply certify Alternatives as equivalent to high school diplomas and bachelor's degrees enforced by heavy fines for violators with sting operations to catch them. Unfortunately that's not going to happen so going to have to figure out the education to employment Dynamic some other way
