I wouldn't go so far as to say its' for losers, but I wish kids wouldn't buy into the marketing hype and think attending a specialized school is really going to increase their chances of making it. Sure you get a nice scope of the business, but that's all you'll have at the end of it. Nothing to fall back on. Better choice is to get a real degree in an unrelated field, while interning at a station for college credit. You'll learn everything you need to know that way.
: That school (if you can call it a school) is a joke. It's for losers.
