Randy, Most career colleges focus on job jeadiness. Yet it's said "a good education prepares one for life". Broadening knowledge about the world around a student, teaching critical thining, learning where to find information, and developing into a professional worker with traits such as common coutesy, dress and demeanor are among many attributes a good education should provide. Developing a sense for life-long learning would be wonderful, and the above mentioned traits contribute to that goal. Barry Westling
