College is too expensive. The fact they we are encouraging our society to be less educated for cost reason is bad solution to this problem.
Even if we lowered the cost, a lot of jobs don’t require a college degree that ask for one, especially some jobs that go beyond that by asking for a masters for jobs that are pretty much training and memory oriented. We need to be more realistic about the training required for jobs and go back to putting money into vocational and trade schools, inexpensive certifications, or even JC’s and technical schools. We’ve over socialized the idea that everyone needs college
I also don’t think the average college creates people that are educated. We don’t have a culture of wanting to learn and think critically in this country, more people going to college and just going through the motions for a piece of paper doesn’t mean we’re really producing smarter or educated people, just raising the educational achievement level.
