Seems like they're already "directing" people toward professions, just most of them they have no chance of being successful at, or earning a satisfactory living... Perhaps, if they changed their ways just a tad, they might benefit someone besides the student loan lending institutions?

Shh, I'm winning them over to the side of big government!
I'm all for guidance counselors and educators encouraging young folks to follow their dreams, but perhaps they need to look closer at the entire individual. Just because someone can achieve a certain score on a standardized test, does not mean they are cut out for the university path. Just the same as everyone that doesn't achieve a certain score on a standardized test isn't destined to work lowest common denominator jobs their entire life.
