[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why such disdain for those majoring in “vocational” degrees? I majored in accounting because as someone with few means, I needed something that would get me straight into a job. I didn’t have much room for error or creativity.[/quote] I’ve even heard people call medical school “trade school” because it is training you for a specific job, not broadening your mind for a higher purpose. My kids chose to go the vocational route because they valued being able to support themselves upon graduation. Aside from tuition paid for, they don’t expect any family money. As for broadening their minds, they have a lot of creative outside interests and good community.[/quote]
