There are just as many excellent reasons NOT to go to a four-year college as there are for going. The first is MONEY; a second and third are the same as the first, because the arts, crafts, and skilled trades pay far more than most occupations requiring a college degree. In this short, fact-filled book, Harlow G. Unger, a former associate professor and author of ten books on American education, gives high-school juniors and seniors--and their parents--the many reasons for and huge financial advantages of the many educational alternatives to four-year colleges, including cooperative education, community colleges, technical institutes, apprenticeships, and lucrative on-the-job training in many industries.
