Why graduate now?

At this rate, what is the point of graduating from college now?

With unemployment rates spiking and companies reluctant to hire, many college seniors are facing the prospect of graduating without a job and moving home to save money.


I was always told to go to college, graduate, and get out on my own. Well with the way the economy is now, I don't see any reason why I shouldn't just strech out my stay in college and continue to live off my parents! I have a place to stay, free groceries, gas, and all those things paid for so why give that up. Yes, it would be nice to be at home and always have Mom and Daddy's cooking but who wants to go home? Especially when my parents live in a small town. There would be no luck in me finding a job! As the article says,would living back with family limit the things that you can do? I'm too used to being able to come and go as I please, would moving back in with the 'rents mean restirctions? I think not. Looks like I might be on the 10 year graduating plan... and I only have 2 more semesters to go!
