I have been hearing on CNN, Fox News and other outlets some people saying that after COVID 19 is gone, there will be no need for public schools or two-year and four-year public colleges and universities.
Mike Rowe, the former host of Dirty Jobs and Somebody’s Got To Do It, who by the way has a degree in communications from Towson University in Maryland, has gone with the Trumpian/GOP mantra of college de-emphasization.
Rowe and Trump feel that colleges and schools have outlived their usefulness and a resurgence of blue collar America is on the rise, the milkman, the steelworker, the textile worker, the carpenter, the police officer, the firefighter, the soldier, and that you don’t really need school or college for that.
They feel that the pendulum is swinging toward a blue collar America where you don’t need a degree. Social distancing may have killed the colleges and schools-for Rowe and Trump’s sake.
