My personal belief is that college should be about making a living, period.
Before college is a whole different arena. I am a strong proponent of exposes children to art, music, literature, history up until college. I absolutely hate when schools drop art & music from their curriculum.
I think that children do not know if they will be good in those areas or will develop a love for those topics, so I think children need a broad education in their younger years.
However, once a child has grown up and moved into college, then I think they have to be thinking about making a living. By college, most people know what they are good at, and what they are interested in.
College is too expensive to be thinking about enjoying life, it’s about working hard to be able to take care of oneself afterward.
Training to me is when you show someone how to do something. Teaching is about showing a person how to think. College should show a person how to think and solve problems.
My personal belief is that college should be about making a living, period.
