Let's say they were willing to award you any degree you had the units for, regardless of when you earned them or whether they were used for a previous degree. You could rack up 10 different Bachelor's degrees that did not necessarily reflect much additional effort over 1 or 2 degrees, just by careful choices of courses and degrees. Especially if you get them from different schools. People looking at your credentials would expect that each degree represented a significant effort, when it did not.
I see a problem in that.
So degrees don't represent knowledge, they represent effort? This is something many of us have believed for quite some time..
