The modern American university is designed solely to destroy your soul.

If you’re an American, you should simply not go there—there’s no reason to. It’s not as people advertise that there are no downsides. It’s literately the worst thing you could do as an 18-year-old.

More upsides than downsides, to be honest. And that's even with the massive downside of student loan debt. American universities made me a better learner, better earner, better professional, and better human. And it gave me some of my greatest friendships even a decade later.
