One of the biggest problems is you are required to take a dozen nonsense classes to get the class you actually need
They could make it two years if they stopped the BS courses and actually taught.
There isn't anything really bold about his statement, he is really just stating the reality of the current higher education system in the USA.
My older son has a high school diploma. When he graduated he got a job in a body shop. He learned on the job and is now training other employees. He makes very good money and is happy with his work. No student loan debt and he is always in demand. I could not be prouder of him.
This lunacy started as soon as the "everyone has to go to college" began.
I completely agree with his statement. I received my BS in 2010 and the job I have now has nothing to do with my education.
Bring back trades in high school!!! ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
The world screwed up big time when they told my generation (I'm 33) that the only way we could succeed is by going to college. Now we're seeing shortages of trade school jobs. And of course the new push is "college bad". Guess what, next we're going to be short on doctors, nurses, engineers, etc etc. The world needs to stop being so reactionary and start being a little proactive.
My biggest issue with my college experience was that a lot of classes I took in my first two years were taught to me in highschool. Biggest waste of time.
I couldn’t agree more. Bring back apprenticeships in all fields.
In tte last 30 years tuition has increased a whopping 1400% !!!
I’m so glad an electrician working on my parents house in high school asked me if I wanted a job, now I have a career
My teacher in 2004, “If you don’t go to college, you will be a second class citizen.”
I am a perfect example of this. Started going to school for a mechanical engineering degree. Had to leave school for a few reasons, with funds being one of the biggest. Decided to start an electrical apprenticeship to become a journeyman. 4 years after completing that apprenticeship, I am a PM for one of the largest utility subcontractors in the US and Canada, managing techs from Hawaii to Maine and into Canada. I deal with some of the largest corporations in the world managing some of their most complex roadblocks. Every skill I need to do my job I gained through either experience, asking questions to experts in the field, or evaluating my failures. Do not let your lack of degree bring down your aspirations. Be a good person, work hard every day, and don't be afraid to take chances.
My beef with universities is that it’s no longer about the education but instead about renting a dorm room to a kid who doesn’t have a job and can’t afford it and will be paying for it for the rest of their life with their student loan. They are glorified landlords.
I completely agree with him, unfortunately most companies hiring will not even give an interview to somebody who has no 4 year degree and they pay $17 an hour it's ridiculous
My son went to a trade school for electronics/robotics. 18 month course, 4 hours a day, 4 days a week. He is 27, he made $92,000 last year. No student loans.
The cost of college is the same as paying for a small house in a middle income neighborhood.
as an HVAC dude, I get paid very well, and wont be replaced by ai. lets gooooo!
40 years ago, I graduated from a major university in Philadelphia. $10,000 for 4 years. I lived with my parents in our safe, suburban home and took buses and the Broad Street subway. I took a student loan of $2,500 from the NDSL program which allowed me to pay back $30 a month. That $2,500 was A LOT OF MONEY for me back then, but I paid it off in 5 years. I could not imagine paying to go to college nowadays.
