[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted earlier about my daughter flunking out of a 4 year when she really should have probably gone the community college route to begin with.

My husband is very smart, but was not into school in his teens. He was very good at a sport, but then had a career ending injury. He wound up taking up his time afterward by getting involved in things he shouldn’t have/running with a bad crowd. He had it together enough to know he needed stability and some skills and enlisted. He is also the kind of guy who likes to work with his hands and build things. He did electronics and electrical work in the military and started an associates degree while still enlisted. That eventually led to a gov’t contract field and a bachelors in electrical engineering (hello, my friends on here who know me).

So, that is definitely a path for the right kid. I still vote for working and Community college, but I did want to provide a good example of someone who took the military path to an eventual degree and career[/quote]
+1 Unfortunately my "borderline" student is out after one semester. Oh well, its just $18,000 lost.  :shock: Onto the next phase of life. [/quote]
