If you mean the college scam, i agree.
No one forces anyone to go into massive debt for just an undergraduate degree, let alone graduate school, only to come out with less critical thinking ability than when they went in. It's insanity, especially since approximately 53% of college graduates are unemployed or working in a job that doesn't require a bachelor's degree.
I wish our preparatory education leaders would champion apprenticeships, trade schools and good old entrepreneurialism vs the pipeline to college (and indebtedness). Unfortunately, they don't want more free thinkers and self-starters running around upsetting their apple carts. |
In America, opportunities for success shouldn’t be limited to those with a college degree. As important as it is to make college affordable, it must also be possible to land a well-paying job and launch a career without going to college. As our labor market evolves, well-paying jobs and careers requiring only a high school diploma are harder to find. We need to ensure that workers have access to the training and education that will make them—and our economy—successful.
