That;s me. :happy:

Think about it. Would an employer rather hire someone with a degree from Stanford, or someone who went to community college? It's common sense, people!

A degree is a degree.

Or, you could go to community college (I'm going to Bucks CCC), then a four-year college (not sure where I'm going yet). That's what I plan on doing. :)

Gil's argument is basically the same as the old (and no longer valid, I might add) argument that a GED isn't as good as a standard diploma. Horse hockey.

A degree is a degree.
No it isnt. I don't know how else to tell you. I really wish I could make you understand, but that's clearly not possible.

Not to mention community college is only a 2 year degree. Let me put it in another way. Universities are not as easy to get into. Universities that are well known and prestigious are a lot harder to get into. Many of the people who go to said univsersities do not get their 4 year degree. That's their way of weeding out the not so good students from the really good students. An employer of a large, profitable company could look at someone's resume and see that they have a 4 year degree from a prestigious university, and that says a lot about a person (smart, hard-working, devoted, etc.).

I can't really put it any simpler. It does make a difference. If any of you here ever go to a university, you WILL understand what I'm talking about, and you WILL see the difference.

That work too. Having a university/4-year on your resume somewhere is better than just comunity college/2-year.

Let me put it much simpler. Your too conceited to ever be wrong. It's simply not possible. Your 14 yet somehow have gained a knowledge of all there is to know.  :rolleyes:

If only I could tell you how wrong and hypocritical that statement is. unfortunately, there are not enough words in the English language to do so.

You really can't change stupid. :rolleyes: Its people like you who are going to have a VERY rough time in life. And judging from what I've seen over the past several years, you already have/are.

Sorry to change  subject, but I found out it was Webcam Max that was giving my tuner problems. Now I can record again on my XP Desktop. :dance:

Actually, in this case, changing the subject was a great idea.

Can't wait to see clips!

Using IE is a joke on Vista. Everytime I exit out of the browser, I get a "Internet Explorer has stopped working error"
