@clappdon2 I agree. I like how you think. I’m a big fan of a podcast called Talent Stacker and ChooseFI that talks about some of these topics.

[The TurkeyTickler @TTickler19]

@clappdon2 And In connection to this all, we need to cut the link between K-12 funding and their college attendance %. Schools shouldn’t be graded on which students immediately attend college, and we need to be more accepting of different paths, including unconventional educational paths

[The TurkeyTickler @TTickler19]

@clappdon2 There is both great benefits and drawbacks to specialization in college/trade school. I just think we need to normalize talking about these more and not pushing a “must do” or emphasizing just income side of careers.

[The TurkeyTickler @TTickler19]

@clappdon2 In the not so distant future, college could be cash flowed with summer work. And debt was minimal. If college is more affordable, absolutely, everyone should consider it, even just two years of liberal arts.

[The TurkeyTickler @TTickler19]

@clappdon2 I always push students to explore interests, skills they already have or interested in getting and then make educated decisions about what you want to do. The inflation of college costs is eroding of the benefit of identity exploration and college experiences

[The TurkeyTickler @TTickler19]

@clappdon2 I don’t disagree at all with any of those points. I think the school to college pipeline is a little rushed and too high stakes. I think any decision should be made with proper research, exploration and guidance.

[The TurkeyTickler @TTickler19]

@clappdon2 Government funded grants or loans with 0% interest will only go so far to curb costs of college. Price constraints or increased public funding directly to colleges to eliminate tuition might have impact. More cheap credit isn’t going to lower prices.

[The TurkeyTickler @TTickler19]

@clappdon2 Affordable college is very important, as is access to skills based certifications in many areas, including traditional skilled trades. Financial literacy and planning are key tenants of a well rounded education and making adult decisions with lasting impact at graduation age.

[The TurkeyTickler @TTickler19]

@clappdon2 I think the point is less about pushing that direction, but more about helping students understand their options and that college is not an instant guarantee of success or always good with ROI. Promote both, but most importantly promote importance of skills

[The TurkeyTickler @TTickler19]

@mahalarosewater No. 😂 jk
