Meeting Minutes: Possible Solutions

513: The Grad Illusion

Presented by: Bob, John, and Alice

Summary

We, the Council of Unconventional Problem Solvers, met to discuss the Grad Illusion, a phenomenon where graduates feel unfulfilled and lost after completing their degrees.

Discussion

Bob: "We need to acknowledge that the Grad Illusion is real, folks. I mean, have you seen the state of the job market?"

John: "Agreed, Bob. But what if we told them that their degrees are actually just fancy pieces of paper?"

Alice: "That's not funny, John. What if we told them that their degrees are actually just a means to buy overpriced coffee and pretend to be interesting at parties?"
