Even in a weak job market,the old college try isn’t the answer for everyone.A briefing paper from the Brookings Institution warns that “we may have overdone the message” on college,senior fellow Isabel Sawhill said.
甚至在一个不景气的劳务市场,该老牌大学的尝试也不是适合每个人的.来自布鲁金斯学会的一份简报警告说对高等学院“我们也许过分夸大了它的信息”,资深会员伊莎贝尔·桑韦尔（Isabel Sawhill）说.
“We’ve been telling students and their families for years that college is the only way to succeed in the economy and of course there’s a lot of truth to that,” Ms.Sawhill said.“On average it does pay off… But if you load up on a whole lot of student debt and then you don’t graduate,that is a very bad situation.”
“多年来,我们一直在告诉学生和他们的亲属,上大学不是唯一在经济方面取得成功的途径,这当然有大量的事实证明这一点,”桑韦尔女士说,“一般来说,它并不会带来利益……,但是总的来说,如果你负担大量的上学债务,那么你就不会毕业,这是一件非常糟糕的处境.”
