[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College in its present form is living on borrowed time [/quote] At current costs of a BA/BS degree, the college studies really need to prepare a student with specific marketable skills and knowledge that will lead to a well-paid career (enough where one parent working FT can still have a family with 2 kids and live in a reasonable house with good enough public schools). And it needs to be enough salary to pay off any incurred student debt within 5-10 years. That does not mean everyone needs to be majoring in STEM, but even folks outside the STEM majors need to be getting specific work-relevant training and education. [/quote]
