How sweet it is — to have a scholar of Murray’s stature agreeing with me.
For the large percentage of students who Murray argues shouldn’t be in college (at least a 4-year institution), the educational benefits are slight and the degree does nothing except to get them past the “BA holders only” requirements that many employers have established as screening devices.
Murray is optimistic that the business world will come up with better ways of screening potential employees than just looking at paper education credentials.
