Love it Glenn keep focusing on the practicality of a college degree does it work for someone in the inner city with limited means but talent. Keep talking solutions alternatives to our moribund k-12 education systems I say that having attended a 3rd tier state university most of my professors all had name brand degrees.

I know people who graduated from big-time universities, and many are not doing anything with the fancy degree they are educators like myself or worse dropped out of the labor market. They are embarrassed their degree did not pan out for them

However, my friends who majored in STEM regardless of college are outperforming all my liberal arts friends struggling to keep up with the cost of living.

Today I discourage students from the traditional 4-year college I tell them to take the John McWhorter road enroll in vocational or Career Technical Education (CTE) course that is the fast track to the American middle class.
