Strawderman’s five-year program teaches him technical skills free of charge. He says he considered university, but it didn’t interest him. Economics Professor Robert Lerman says Strawderman is not alone. “A lot of people are bored in high school,” Lerman stated. “They leave high school because they are bored. They want to do something besides sitting in a classroom.” Lerman says the education system in the United States is too focused on pushing students to attend university. “What we’re doing now is we’re saying unless you learn in this way you don’t really have the chance for a rewarding career,” he said.

　　But Chad Aldeman, an analyst, says studies show the longer students stay in school the better chance they have at having a high paying and stable career. “If you only are a high school graduate your wages are going to drop over you Lifetime-as opposed to a college degree,” he said. “The college is really an insurance policy against unemployment and against low wages”.
