Absolutely. I'm currently mining data by degrees to analyze the true opportunity cost for various fields. A degree in communications, for example, may not be economically justifiable in the current environment. But we can flip it around and say a doctorate in medicine may not be viable due to the cost and amount of debt on the student. It's all anecdotal until I pull up some real data.



Hope to see your results when you finish.
