“Anyone can be successful in college, and no one should be condemned to declasse jobs like electrician, plumber, machinist, etc.”
Are you serious? Are skilled trades like those, “declasse,” which I guess is a French word meaning `dead end & low paying’, like a Starbucks barista? Ask any liberal arts grad what their degree is worth.
Technical schools turn out future well-paid welders, electricians, plumbers, mechanics, and machinists. Some trades require working through apprentice, journeyman, and master, but the payoff is a good paying job.
Wonder what the college debt burden is like for technical grads?
I’m a machinist. You didn’t understand what I wrote.
Any kids today that had half a brain would go to trade school, the trades make GREAT MONEY, and you don’t come out of school with the national debt on your shoulders!! Also very easy to start your own business people in the trades are in very high demand!!
