I’m may still finish because I’ve already invested too much to quit at 71%.
But I really hope universities spend more time listening to people actively working in IT and cybersecurity.
The goal shouldn’t be checking boxes
It should be preparing students for the careers they’re paying to enter

@chiefgyk3d@social.chiefgyk3d.com don't get sucked into the sunk cost fallacy. All the other great things you have done should eclipse the missing degree. Only you can decide if there are jobs you might want in the future that are going to require a degree (the same way some require certifications). If finishing the degree isn't going to benefit you then stop. The fact that you are close isn't relevant.
