[QUOTE="Okie1907, post: 2993717, member: 40509"] That is the problem today. It is always college, college, college. There wasnt another option and honestly I think some students in my class could of benefited from it. I know some that are just now getting their life in order because they wasted 2-3 years struggling through community college then real college then just to drop out with debt and figuring out there are other options like trades. I know I could of used it. Im still lost honestly; luckily I got a good job now but it wont last forever it will be come obsolete in the next 10 years if it doesnt get so over run with people that the pay isnt worth it first which I fear also might happen to me. Anyways teachers wont push anything but college, I remember my home ec teacher getting into an argument with a student about everyone should go when he had a career in the navy lined up. If I recall correctly he owns a successful auto repair facility in Kansas now. She said even a mechanic needed to go for a bit... Im not saying it couldnt hurt but the fact that some are so insistant on it. From my own experiences of going to college it is only good if you do engineering, computer science, medical fields, accounting or very specific business degrees otherwise you better make the best grades and get great internships if you do any other major.
