Bingo! It is NOT elitist to say that not everyone needs a four-year degree or advanced study, and that not everyone is well served by pursuing a four year degree or advanced study. There are so many life paths, and frankly so many good careers that a young person can enter with a more targeted, shorter educational course.

Then there are people like Alex who feel the attraction of making their own way, or the young brothers in our neighborhood who started a drive through coffee stop at around age 19 and 21.

I made the comment when my sister was in town that I was the only one of my siblings who went to private university for undergraduate, yet I am the only one without at least a masters now. She lives in a pretty upscale world, but her response was "Well, you haven't really needed one to do what you wanted to do".
