Oh absolutely.

Your professors/advisors will act like you’re going to have an easy time once you graduate, until you’re almost finished, and then try and push you into staying on for a masters or PHD.

Once you try and find a job after graduating? It totally feels like being cheated. You’re basically an over-qualified secretary or mailroom clerk at best.

I’m lucky I fell into the only field a liberal arts or humanities degree is good for (social work) because as much as my advisors told me that if I didn’t know what to do “I could always become a teacher!” ...yeah, no. You’re not getting hired as a teacher anymore without a super hands on education degree or a masters in something really desirable.

It’s a whole different world from when our parents went/didn’t go to college, and I don’t blame them for not getting it. I DO strongly blame the university system for lying to kids about the reality of the job market.
