I went to college to get an education.

I use it every day.

Yes, I ended up in teaching, but that wasn't why I went to school. I honestly earned two degrees in English with the goal of being educated. I had planned to be a full time mother, but that was financially impossible. I do love teaching.

I once read that close to 70% of college grads will work in a field other than the one they received their degree in, but cannot find the study now. At any rate, I think a college degree shows your ability to study and think in several different fields and a flexibility that would benefit almost any worker.
