College Degree or Debt Trap?

Everyone told us: “College is the answer.” But for Black graduates, the numbers don’t lie. Still earning less, still owing more, and still proving worth in rooms they already paid to enter.In this episode of I Love My HBCU?, we wrestle with a tough question: Is the degree itself worth it, or is it the education and life lessons around it that matter most?From the value of trade schools and connections to why education has never truly been the “great equalizer,” this conversation is raw, personal, and deeply relevant for anyone questioning the path society laid out for them.Tune in to hear bold perspectives that every student, alum, and parent needs to hear.All opinions expressed by guests do not reflect the views of "I Love My HBCU?" A new episode premieres every Saturday at Noon EST.Watch on YouTube — https://www.youtube.com/@ilovemyhbcyou Listen on Apple Podcast — https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i-love-my-hbcu/id1698859331 Spotify — https://open.spotify.com/show/1Ump3xDUAbKxX9pH68AFIB Amazon Music — https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9bdfc506-3fd6-4279-afab-267f5e431b3c/i-love-my-hbcuFollow us on Instagram — https://instagram.com/ilovemyhbcyou LinkedIn — https://linkedin.com/company/i-love-my-hbcu
