    It’s different in different regions and it’s certainly moved around over the years.

    And the point remains, we graduate students who know what the powerhouse of a cell is but not how to do their taxes, work a 401k, put together a realistic budget, plan for major purchases, make a work schedule, or have any saleable skills other than being able bodied.

    We aren’t preparing people for life, we’re warehousing them until college and if they don’t go to college we just shove them into the cracks.
