that reminds me of a certain ex who despite having a master's degree in forensic anthropology, was basically an adult-child.
college can fill you with all kinds of knowledge, but nothing comes close to hard won life experience. living at school does nothing to prepare you for actual life, it's like preschool for adulthood. you think you're the shit because you're 18 and out of your parent's house, but that means exactly squat for your ability to be a functioning member of society because half the students don't know when it's snack time OR nap time.
i know apprenticeships are for mexicans or whatever, but us white folk should really take a second look at them before automatically assuming a piece of paper that says you conform to a system enough to qualify to have your name written in some esoteric font on it by a total stranger means you should be allowed with the rest of us in general population.
as for "liberal" indoctrination, it's 100% the students who indoctrinate each other through peer pressure. everyone's in some kind of pissing match with one another over who's the most progressive person or whatever, because suddenly they're trying to have sex with as many different people as possible, so they broaden their self perceived appeal so much that they become meaningless charicatures. they try their hardest to be the biggest phonies, in order to create a persona that helps them move past their former highschool selves. suddenly 8 out of 6 people you meet will be bisexual, EVERYONE has tattoos, since there are like, three places RIGHT near campus (WOO INDIVIDUALITY!) Unless you're able to isolate yourself, and work on you, you're going to be stamped into the same stupid little mold as everyone else.
tl;dr: college is preschool, you drink juice, take naps, and draw on yourself.
