It notes that some people are better suited for technical or hands-on careers that do not require a college degree, such as an air traffic controller which pays more on average than jobs requiring a bachelor's degree. It acknowledges the importance of further education after high school but suggests options besides college like technical training, the military, which pays for education and provides valuable experience. The document criticizes college as more like uncontrolled partying than academic learning for some students.
