“”The school doesn’t teach you how to get a job. Everything you’re talking about — networking, talking to people, searching out companies — that’s something nobody on campus taught,” they said.”

My wife made a proposal about 3 years back to train college seniors on this. She has an entire program where students learn how to function in the real world after college graduation. Only one school out of the 100 she gave her proposal accepted it.

Colleges do not want to do this because they are textbook driven, inside the box institutions and stuck on ancient administration processes where anything outside of that paradigm is unacceptable.

Plus the publics have very good financing despite their poor job of preparing the grads for real life.
