Summary

This quote suggests that attending college for four years without truly applying oneself or experiencing personal growth is equivalent to coasting through with financial support from a parent. The term "half-baked" implies an incomplete development or lack of preparedness upon graduation, potentially lacking the practical skills or knowledge needed for success. The "lot of crust" symbolizes a superficial or pretentious appearance that masks a lack of substance. In essence, the quote critiques the notion of obtaining a college degree without actively engaging in the learning process.
