• .@pbsmediashift i always tell young ppl 2 go 2 school/finish their degree but i know that 4 some a DIY/entrepreneur path = most advantageous #
• .@pbsmediashift For example, learning to code can transform your life/put you in another income bracket. U don't need a degree to do that. #
• .@pbsmediashift The cost of a private university is out of reach for many. DIY/edupunk tactics are crucial to sustaining the economy. #
• .@pbsmediashift Students need to be proactive/create their own opportunities becuz a degree guarantees nothing. You make yr own life. (2/2) #
• .@pbsmediashift Also, economy aside, many college grads have no idea how to network or get a job. Their schools have failed them. (1/2) #
• .@PBSMediaShift My real problem is with the notion that education ends with a piece of paper. That limits you professionally and creatively. #
• .@PBSMediaShift Granted, I wouldn't want someone operating on me who didn't go 2 med school. But many industry titans never finished college #
