Welcome to Litsy!

I find it interesting that we push this idea of “everyone must go to college” and we disparage self-education of any kind as somehow not legitimate, when so many well respected people have had little or no formal education (or in more recent times, nothing beyond compulsory education). Meanwhile, we have useless degrees and a growing student debt crisis that hurts society as a whole, not just those who will never known adult life without debt.

I always forget how incredibly lucky I am to be able to purchase books and how easily excisable they are to me. I had had needed to read this first sentence over. #Hemingway #earnesthemingway #amoveablefeast
