IECA Certified Educational Planner Tue, 02 Feb 2010 00:00:15 +0000 http://collegeadventures.net/blog/?p=1949#comment-1012 As a result of our current high unemployment, parents will begin to see the need for more specialization, and more students will be heading to community colleges where they can pick up a skill they can put to use right away: nursing, heating and ventilation, vet tech, bus/accounting, engineering technology, etc. I think that public universities and community colleges will fare better than lesser-known private, regional colleges - the private elites will still attract students who value name recognition. I agree with the above article, what's important is going to college – and I would add community college to that list.
