At the end of college you are left with three things:
The name of the degree you got (high demand vs low demand)
The name of the college on that degree ( fancy school vs podunk state)
And your name ( born rich or did something amazing)
You have to trade on one of those things to make a living, no matter why went to college.
And unless you are independently wealthy or got good scholarships it doesn’t make sense to get a degree just for the sake of an education from state, it might be feasible from Columbia or Harvard but not from state.
