Not everyone can go to college. I really wish high schools taught more about the alternatives to college... learning a trade, the military, entry level jobs with growth potential, etc.
I think the whole "the only way to be successful is to go to college" mantra of high schools today is why so many reports show that kids are learning less in schools now, and why so many kids get useless degrees and wonder why the can't find a job.
"But I spent $200,000 dollars on this sociology bachelors, why can't I find a job? Darn economy!"
