Heh, one of the grad students I work with taught at a trade school last fall in order to get some teaching experience. Turns out the trade school was more expensive than a university degree. Most of his students had disasterous personal lives and were going to end up with a ton of debt to land a 35K per year job. It wasn't that they lacked the ability to do well, they just repeatedly made bad decisions in life. With a better personal situation and a crumb of motivation, these same people could be graduating with less debt, an engineering degree, and on their way to a 55K per year starting salary. It's really kind of sad.
