    In design school they teach you how to learn.

    It's not a one-stop shop, at least the good ones aren't.

    Tell me without lying that you're not still learning new things as you're working.

    Our's is a practical, hands-on, performance-based industry.

    No job is ever 100% the same.

    In design school you should have learnt how to be industrious, resourceful, anal, expressive, and how to recognise bad from the good. Professionalism, business acumen and computer skills come later.

    If your tutors weren't showing you how to at least achieve these traits then your own resourcefulness should have compensated and you'd have worked harder.

    If your course sucks, then quit complaining and find a better one.

    Those who complain at how crap their school was is akin to sportman who blame their coaches for a bad game.
