Associate’s Degree Or Tech Certificate: Don’t Learn To Think, Learn to Do

Obtaining a degree of higher learning is not a guarantee that a higher-paying job will be right around the corner.

College-age adults are finding that a technical degree at a lesser known school is worth more in the immediate future than a 4-year bachelor’s degree.

College Measures (CM) released a report finding that degrees in the fields of science, technology, engineering and math are more promising as far as employment after graduation than English majors.

This study was a joint venture between CM, the American Institutes for Research (AIR) and the Matrix Knowledge Group (MKG).

Funding for the report was provided by the Lumia Foundation (LF).

This group is comprised of such special interest groups such as:

• Former president of Sallie Mae
• Representatives of community colleges
• Representative of online schools

Mark Schneider, the author of the report, stated that “the findings challenge some conventional wisdom.”

This report was conducted for the sake of convincing students, parents, and lawmakers (including policymakers) that there is little value in higher learning and investments in technical schools will boost enrollment.

Schneider stated: “Until the data about potential earnings among graduates across the nation is unearthed and put to full use, many students will make poor decisions about schools and programs — decisions that will leave them saddled with debt and clamoring for a government bailout.”

The CM report claims:

• Short term degrees yield higher salaries
• Higher tuition does not guarantee higher wages
• Degrees in the scientific field prove more financially rewarding

Since “technical-oriented associate’s degree programs are helping many students successfully enter the labor market by equipping them with skills that are in demand” the encouragement toward a 4-year university seems inappropriate.

Mainstream media adds to the new social meme that technical degrees are better by expounding that a “Ph.D. is often a waste of time” and often causing “dissatisfaction” for being a pathway to “slave labor”.

Current acceptable skills obtained by lower-level education are:

• Paralegal
• Registered nurse
• Police officer
• Dental hygienist
• Diagnostic medical sonographer

Each degree necessitates a fair amount of education; however, they are reflective of the lack of actual labor that goes into more respectable positions.

While their pay rate is rising, these are grunt laborers of their respective trades and are not idealized for their social status.

Recently, President Obama spoke to students at State University of New York at Buffalo; a school where most of the student body is made up of children from middle-class families.

The purpose of this speech was to entice residents of lower-profile cities to a new scheme for affordable college.

As part of this scheme, there will be a new rating system (NRS) implemented to evaluate schools based on the needs of the students; while bringing the curriculum to those standards as well.

This would connect financial assistance to the value of the student. Those educational institutions that meet governmental standards would be rewarded with more financial aid.

Obama decreed that the 5 pillars of economic growth are:

• Quality jobs
• Education
• Healthcare
• Retirement programs
• Homeownership

Peter Thiel founded the Thiel Fellowship (TF) with the promise of “a no-strings-attached grant of $100,000 to a skip college and focus on their work, their research, and their self-education.”

Thiel Fellows “are given to immerse themselves in their work comes the opportunity to collaborate with each other.

Fellows are encouraged to learn from each other, and to use the group’s varied experiences, interests, and strengths to breathe life into existing ideas and to generate new ones.”

One of the most interesting positions that Thiel has held is having a seat on the Steering Committee of the Bilderberg Group.

The Steering Committee governs the Bilderberg Group with an elected chairman. They also decides who is extended an invitation to attend Bilderberg Group meetings – based on “their experience, their knowledge, their standing and their contribution to the selected agenda.”

This Crazy Off Grid Device Literally Makes Drinkable Water From Fresh Air:

According to NASA, the U.S. is expecting a 100-YEAR LONG MEGADROUGHT.

drought-monitor

It's already begun. Ask the farmers in California. They know.

Every survivalist knows that water is of critical importance. You NEED an independent water source that you can count on!

As an interesting "survival rehearsal" - imagine that you turned the tap on right now and nothing came out. How long would you last?

But what if there was another water source literally hidden in plain sight. That's right, I'm talking about the atmosphere!

The amazing thing about getting water from the natural moisture in the air... is that it is ALWAYS available.

This gives you real water security!

😳 What Tinnitus Does To Your Brain Cells (And How To Stop It)

After 47 years of studies and countless brain scans done on more than 2,400 tinnitus patients, scientists at the MIT Institute found that in a shocking 96% of cases, tinnitus was actually shrinking their brain cells.

As it turns out, tinnitus and brain health are strongly linked.

Even more interesting: The reason why top army officials are not deaf after decades of hearing machine guns, bombs going off and helicopter noises…

Is because they are using something called "the wire method", a simple protocol inspired by a classified surgery on deaf people from the 1950s...
