This is the crux of it all, though. The contention is that these schools aren't doing their jobs. Most students that come out of these institutions are not very well educated.

But how much of that is the school's fault? I mean, the student has SOME (most?) of the responsibility of getting an education, though, I acknowledge the school has the job of making sure they're providing an actual education.

I know, based on all the commercials I see, that ITT Tech claims to be more of a trade school where you learn to become an electrician or mechanic versus learning a degree. So, does ITT Tech not providing that type of education? Like are people learning to be a mechanic, graduating and then finding out that they don't know as much as they should to fix vehicles?
