That is insane. I have an English degree but often regret going to school for it. I did learn a lot about writing but I could have learned it in other ways. The worst for me is all the stuffy pretentious people that college English departments are full of--that's my biggest regret, that I ever sought their hard-won approval or gave away my time to them at all really. I've actually been wanting to write about it but just needed the right prompt. So thank you!
