Mike Rowe’s talks on the “skills mismatch” are overlooked by the media in the “everyone to college” discussion.
Too many people flunk out of four year college trying to get a business degree or finish with a useless liberal arts degree when they would get a better paying job with 12-24 months of votech school in plumbing, training as a mechanic or phlebotomist, CNC machine programming, etc.
Nine months in trade school. Job guaranteed.
