    I cannot agree more with you Caroline! As a brain scientist turned career coach, I strongly believe that those who describe their education as ‘getting’ a degree are truly missing the point in terms of what education is and is not.

    Education is the best mental training one can receive. But the learner must participate in that training and fully engage in the process to gain its benefits and the skills that are developed through the learning process.

    I just wrote a post on marketable skills that a liberal arts major can develop through his/her education on justmeans – http://www.justmeans.com/Job-Search-Tips-for-Liberal-Arts-Students-Show-Off-Your-Marketable-Skills/13684.html

    As you mentioned, it is a choice that professionals have to make in terms of how they portray themselves and how they take advantage of opportunities they are presented with.
