36% of young adults say their college debt wasn't worth it

Is a degree worth getting?  Yes.  Is debt worth accumulating?  That's a personal position- in our home we do not believe in debt TODAY, however, that wasn't always the case, and I think this question mixes up the value of a degree with the presumption of college debt.  As if they are a package deal.

I'd be willing to bet 100% of the students who earned a degree with 0% debt would say it was worth it - and that's a much harder path than simply signing your name on a promissory note.

I totally agree.  Saying "it was worth it" doesn't necessarily mean "if I had to do this over again, I'd do it exactly the same way."  If they had found a way to get a degree without college debt, would that have been preferable?  Probably to many.
