The fact that the male-female wage gap remains large after more than four decades in which women outnumbered men in college strongly suggests that college alone offers a narrow view of opportunity.
Or it suggests that women make choices that tend to result in lower wages that you conveniently ignore because it does not advance your cause.
It's both honestly. College can help you get a decent job, but unless you're going to be a doctor or a lawyer, or hell, a college professor, you're probably better off going into the trades...
Well not quite. College enabled me to bypass some of the lower rungs in my industry and started me off at a higher salary than peers with the same job. And I’m in my nice air conditioned home office not doing backbreaking trade work that will wear my body out by the time I’m 50. College has its place in the middle class too.
Seems like the key ingredient is persistence, besides, with colleges these days, think id rather avoid the neon mafia, take out fewer student loans and go into HVAC.
