Interesting comments on trades vs 4 year schools. My son just began 
college, math major. He has book sense way more than most--gifted in 
brains and the desire to learn on a higher level. On the other hand, he 
can't change the oil in his truck without my assistance. I tried very 
hard to teach him the basics of farming and mechanic work, but thats 
just not how his mind works. For folks like that, 4 year degrees are 
where its at. Myself, I didn't have the brains or the desire to go to 4 
years of school, so I went to community college and have spent the last 
30 years in a machine shop.
Schooling should match the student, that is my families take on the 
situation.
