College in general is pretty worthless in the long run. I'm 41 years old and I only speak of my college "experience" fondly. I don't speak to anyone about their college classes or what not.

I, actually, care more about what I did around college, which was make fun events and organize stuff. I ended up doing a few crazy things that I look back on and deem them to be my "internship" in entertainment or working in film. I created a late night comedy show. My friends were the head writer and the host. I just put it all together.

I also created a 24 hour short film competition. Did it 3 years in a row. Which not only was a great thing to do once but I had the grit to continue to do it and grow it year to year.

BUT>>>

Right out of college I ended up literally using my degree to get a job. I interviewed for a job in video on cruise ships, got turned down but got a job in theatre automatically because I had a degree in theatre. Done and dusted. Ended up working there 5 years, earning my way into video, then IT. Started coding and ultimately now two decades later, I'm putting it all together... coding on youtube in videos. crazy right?
