The Strongest Careers Are Non-Linear
For years we have been talking about the education bubble and the problem that colleges charge tons of money and then graduates are unemployable and in debt. Colleges are responding by becoming job preparation centers. And Frank Bruni, opinion editor for the New York Times, says this is a waste of time and resources.
I’ve always thought this way. Life is for living & learning. School has its benefits but isn’t the only way & sometimes it isn’t the best way.
“A fundamental shift is taking place, where the path to getting a job is massively circumventing college credentials. And, at the same time, the American public is fed up with the insane debt that college are expecting new grads to take on in order to graduate.”
