They went into debt for a lot of fucking experience.

No I would like to disagree, they went to college for the opportunity to gain more knowledge. Some of them partied, some of them are idiots but in the end college itself doesn't give you experience needed to guarantee it being worthwhile like it used to be 20 years ago. I say this as a guy who got a BS in electrical engineering and no one wanted to hire me out of school since I had no experience except for the college experience of in itself.
