NYT article recommends skipping college, learning a trade as good alternative

[emazur]

I hope to see a lot more articles such as these float around the media (it's not perfect as they put someone in there who thought the government should be investing in education of trades, but still the overall message of avoiding a bullshit degree for useful skills is a good one)

What if you want to learn a skill through college? :)

Either way, I'm going to college because it would be dumb not to considering I can get "free" (aka taxpayer funded) education + living allowance from the government (via post-911 GI Bill, which extends educational benefits to be shared with family).

Business Administration with a concentration in Entertainment Management,
and a minor in Radio-Television-Film.

GREAT MAJOR RIGHT? :D
