Once upon a time, a college degree seemed like a secure path to the good life. It wasn't exactly cheap but with the right amount of hard work and perseverance, it was possible to find a way through and the reward for doing so was clear.
Nowadays, however, many young people are finding that their degree doesn't necessarily guarantee them anything as so many employers require them for entry-level jobs. And since the act of attending college has only become more expensive and student debt has emerged as a national issue that's getting worse all the time, they're left wondering if it's even worth it.
But while it remains unclear what the future holds for the people stuck in this situation, at least one person who remembers what it's like to be them is doing his part to help in a major way.
