Reply to comment by DepthExternal6034 in TIL Dalhousie University was established in 1818 but due to constant budget issues didn't hold the first class until 1838. Classes were then sporadic and no degrees were given out until the first graduating class in 1866. by jamescookenotthatone

Weird that people used to go to school to learn things instead of just for the piece of paper they got at the end, right?

It's extra weird that a couple decades ago a degree ensured you a career

I blame the money. People are so stressed about loans and getting a career that pays fairly, so they have a hard time dedicating themselves through passion in the field.
