[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't the goal of some politicians to redirect kids away from college and straight to the job market or a short duration trade school? And it's not limited to politic as as well. A lot of tech bros don't want kids going to college as well. It's all about paying workers less. Their kids of course will go to college. [/quote] I think this is true to a certain extent. I’m seeing it in the state I live in. Community colleges, for example, are working to align with employers. High schools are as well. It’s disquieting. However, I am reminded by people who work with this particular student body that they are not interested in a four year degree. Full stop. And I’m being unrealistic. So, instead, the goal is to get them something that could be meaningful and allow them to use their talents on their terms. They aren’t preventing anyone from going through a traditional high ed route but offering options to those that don’t want that. [/quote]
