Becoming – Here is What Makes College a Scam; College Graduation Photoshoot at a HBCU Turns Controversial

In this episode of Becoming with Angelina Watkins, she discusses why college is not needed to be successful and is an expense way to learn skills that can be learned on the job.

Thought Prompt
It is a proud moment for Terica Williams to be completing her Master’s in Counseling and Education. And like anyone, you memorialize the moment with graduation photoshoot. However, Terica may have taken her celebration too far as she takes and posts risky nude photos of herself in from of the Florida A&M University mascot. What she saw as woman empowerment, the school and some of their alumni are not applauding. Did she go too far using their image? Or was there another motive behind these risky pictures?

Masterclass
College is necessary for certain professions. After all, who would want anyone defending them in court or performing surgery and you have not gone through a thorough educational program? However, you do not need a degree to be successful. You learn skills that will help you on the job and in entrepreneurship, but it is an expensive lesson to learn when you can easily learn the same skills on the job or in a less expense coaching program.

Q&A
Is going to college and majoring in STEM the way to get wealthy? Absolutely not! But if jobs in STEM interest you then you should pursue, but don’t expect to wealth.
