actually does what it is suppose to do (provide you with the foundation to successfully enter your desired career field).

I think I would simply disagree that what it is "supposed" to do is what you think it will do.

In my mind an education is nothing more than information in your head, and a degree is nothing more than a piece of paper verifying that said information is in your head and remains there.

What you do with that information is on you, not them. I don't disagree at all that they are shady as shit with trying to convince you to get advanced degrees in the same field, but those are frequently handled not via loans but via grants and aid packages.
