Dumbing down education
#6
OfficerA Wrote:I was curious as to why "Troops to Teachers" here were so quick to reassure us during their briefing that no matter where our degrees are from, we still had a high chance of becoming teachers when we leave the service (they strongly hinted a bachelor's at least, as they didn't bother looking at my CCAF). Now I'm starting to get why.

Coincidentally this is where I first saw just how... limited? a CJ degree was, as an E9 Superintendent with a bachelor's in it came up apologizing to one of the reps about his "worthless" degree (his words, not mine), but again was reassured that this wouldn't be a problem with Troops to Teachers.

When I was temporarily in an alternative teacher certification program, they recommended that I test for special education because of my social science degree filled with psychology courses, but I was going to test for biology. Obviously, I have no biology degree.
