I felt the same way and now I am law school. I am borrowing more money than
those salaries a year with most going to tuition. I don't know that I was
"depressed" enough to make me go to law school, but the low starting salary
affected my decision.

program?

I agree, it is depressing--enough to make anybody go to law school.
