College doesn't make sense for everyone. Some students simply lack the necessary competence, including the ability to carry on fluent conversation. Or write complete sentences. Nor do they have the basic math.
Many others would prefer non-college careers in industry. And are considering whether the expensive conventional college is worth the heavy investment and borrowing.
A century ago, only about 2 percent of American adults graduated from college; college education expanded when the post World War II G.I.Bill financed veterans. But this helped mask the actual need for college, as opposed to other forms of education. (See the Earl J. Weinreb NewsHole® comments and @BusinessNewshole at Twitter.)
