And I can only speak for myself, but at no point did I sit around with my educated buddies and rag on how stupid people who go to trade school are.
I just never saw this sort of animosity between people who go to college and people who don't, personally.
I blame it on The Game of Life. Sure you can take the "short route" and start work immediately as a Janitor, but you're going to be at a disadvantage the rest of your life or you can go the "long route" and go to college but get paid mad loot for being a lawyer.
