At least, that's my opinion.

The "Junior College" system in California is wonderful. You can get the first two years of general subjects out of the way very cheaply and locally. With better qualified teachers than you would have at the top scale universities, with their "TA's."

Then you are guaranteed admittance into the top ones for your last two years.

Unless you are going to try to teach at the college level, I really can't see getting an MA or PHD. Law, medicine, of course, is a different story. Even a PHD in Engineering is worth only about 15% more in income.

Get the first two undergrad years out of the way the cheapest way possible.
