[quote=Anonymous]I agree that not everyone is suited to higher education. But to assert as some people do that college is unnecessary and it is better to go to trade school is extraordinarily ignorant. No one who has benefitted from a true liberal arts education would ever say such a thing. They know that the point of college is not “what you do with it,” but what it does with you. I agree also that the cost of higher education (even accounting for list prices to be significantly reduced by “aid” discounts) has become preposterous. The bankers and the schools seem to have entirely succumbed to the attraction of getting students to mortgage their very lives so that bankers and administrators prosper. I don’t know the solution. School loans took me a long way. But it seems out of hand now. [/quote]
