What Is a College Degree Worth in China? - nytimes.com

[abc_2011]

A job fair for college graduates in Hefei, the capital of Anhui Province, in October.

While China's economy keeps growing at a rapid pace, the dim employment prospects of many of its college graduates pose a potential economic problem.
According to recent statistics, the average Chinese college graduate makes only 300 yuan, or about $44, more a month than the average Chinese migrant worker. In recent years, the wages of college graduates have remained steady at about 1,500 yuan a month. Migrant workers' wages, however, have risen to 1,200 yuan.

No big deal.

At the very beginning, I wanted to have some serious discussion with them. Now, their posts are more like jokes to me.

Why is this a bad thing? China now have more higher educated people and the competition in the academic area becomes fiercer while the laborers get a much deserved raise in salary.
