spending a couple years in the soft-landing environment of grad school can be easier than trying to find a job in tough economic times. -- nm - Reagen Mar 11, 12:46
instead of looking for jobs, many want to continue school merely because it's a set way of life -- nm - Hotkiss Mar 11, 12:46 8
- Ah. I still say go to school if they're able. -- nm - JaxSean Mar 11, 12:49 2
  - what if able means having to take out loans for the first time? -- nm - Hotkiss Mar 11, 12:49 1
    - I don't see why not. - JaxSean Mar 11, 12:52

      - I don't really think this is false. 15% of our local companies are hiring, which...is not much. - Callisto Mar 11, 13:10
      - Nice link, very helpfu -- nm - Hotkiss Mar 11, 12:54
