Yeah, I think there is a greater divide... for those who reach college/university and want to study subjects that are more academic in nature vs those who are going to community college and getting into apprenticeships or trades (or doing so to get their first two years so they can go into option #1). Here was a similar post/thread in regards to apprenticeships going up: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...g-for-some
