Ohio State Backup Quarterback Cardale Jones, “Ain’t Come to Play School”

All, College Football, Twitter Stephen Douglas October 5th. 2012, 12:30pm

This is Ohio State third-string quarterback Cardale Jones. Cardale is a 6′ 5″ freshman from Cleveland and he doesn’t understand why he and others – presumably his teammates – should have to attend class. After all, they “ain’t come to play SCHOOL.” Those are meme-worthy words right there. They came to play FOOTBALL. Classes are POINTLESS! What I would give for a glance at this kid’s high school transcript. [@Cordale10]

depends.
for example, when im trying to find investment recommendations, scanning thru reports for securities is the exact same mental process, albeit slowed way down, as it is when id come across a certain type of chord when improvising and had to think of a lick or riff. take into account all the variables…i.e. is it a slow/fast song, is it happy/sad, what’s the performance of this holding, what are the client’s objectives, etc.
studying jazz and harmony in college allowed me to calculate a bunch of variables on the fly and pick the right one in real time. i think that’s a fairly valuable skill in a variety of industries.

I guess it depends from person to person. Some people have a narrow world-view and they need college to expose themselves to new ideas and people. For them, college can be an eye opening experience. I didn’t need college to tell me how to think or get exposed to different ideas. I went simply because overwhelming majority of employers still place value on college degree. So I just nodded along and played the game.

I can understand this thinking to a point. But I find it difficult to presume that any of us had all the knowledge necessary for some kind of real world success coming out of high school. In addition to that, I also find it impossible to presume that any of us could have known at the time that we left high school that we were prepared for the world. I studied Locke and Hobbes in high school too, but didn’t learn nearly as much about them as I did in college. And because college gives more time to critical thinking rather than recitation of facts, I know that I am better off for my four very expensive years as an undergraduate.

This may well prove to be the case over time. I don’t think it is right now, but with college costs rising to absurd levels (my alma mater costs close to $60,000 if you factor in tuition, fees, room, board and books) I think market forces will, and in some cases already are, force people to consider alternatives. Colleges need to find a way to adjust to the times (and cut costs while they are at it).

So Kaiser, you only need 4 months of training to do the job, but that doesn’t mean you are ready to be out in the real world? Which is it?
I do agree that not everyone needs to go to a standard 4 year university, but the monetary figure should never be brought into it. People accrue that debt because they make poor decisions. You can get a quality education for much less. Using regional campuses for the large state schools is always a good option. Join the military and have the government foot the bill.
But there is a reason companies don’t hire high school grads and just train them up. The vast majority lack the critical thinking skills and maturity to handle the responsibility of an adult job. A basic course in human development will explain why that is.

I agree. Take something as simple as Excel. I took about 3 courses in college that required I’d say 20-35% of assignment to be completed using this useful tool. Even then, I just had to know basic calculations and create simple tables. I understand college isn’t there to teach you specific job tasks that you may have, but these are the types of things I wish colleges put more emphasis on. It’s a generic office tool that’s used pretty much everywhere. Yet, out of college, my knowledge about this would be at a basic level at best.

Keep making up arguments that you can tear down later. I started this whole thing by asking a question. Not saying college is useless. I even said that for some college is crucial. My point is that college degree shouldn’t be standard parameter by which every potential employee be judged. Percentage of people holding an associate degree or higher in Germany stands at 22%. Most Germans end up in trade schools. Hasn’t stopped their economy or intellectual progress.
75

Kaiser, that’s not all that different from the U.S. I don’t know what the 2010 census showed, but in 2000 26% of Americans had a college degree. And similarly that has not stopped our ability to progress as a nation. But I think that number, at least here in the states, has more to do with the fact that college is expensive and not everyone can afford it and because American primary and secondary education, on the whole, does a poor job of preparing students for college. But none of that takes away from the fact that a college degree does show the ability to undertake critical thinking. In fact I think it underscores that point.
