I think some immigrant parents were absolutely thrilled there when they saw those ads.
My god.... I want a bottle of Obay just as an awesome conversation piece.

Or maybe just a label to slip over a bottle of Advil.


Anyways, I've seen a number of relatively tame advertisements for university and college.

Personally, with the number of highly educated people I've seen coming into temp agencies lately to work minimum wage jobs (pretty much everyone except for high school grads and new immigrants), I'm not seeing how there's a benefit to loading yourself down with a huge student debt. Might as well just start working in a minimum wage job and save yourself the 20 to 30 thousand it costs to go to university. Or save the 10 to 20 thousand to go to college.

But then there's always that sliver of a chance that you might land a job after graduating and not get laid off long enough to clear student debt.
