[quote=Anonymous]We’re going in circles. It used to be that the academically smart went to college and the hands-on went to vocational school. Then, we told everyone they needed a college education. Lots of hands-on folks started at college (many at ridiculously-priced, for-profit mills), didn’t finish, and/or generated huge debts. Most of them got basic jobs and some even went back to trade school. Now, marginal colleges are becoming trade schools. Can’t we just agree that people are good at different things and provide schooling for both? A kid from a regional college with a vocational degree is tricking no one that he/she is academic college material. [/quote]
