    But according to HR consultant Bryan Driscoll, the problem likely isn't Gen
    Z, but instead the larger education system.

    "As someone who went through years of education, including law school, I
    can tell you this: colleges are not preparing students for real-world
    work," Driscoll told Newsweek. "Education today emphasizes theory over
    practice. Sure, learning Greek mythology is fascinating, but unless you're
    teaching it, how does that prepare you to communicate effectively in a
    corporate meeting or demonstrate professionalism? It doesn't."

    'They are often unprepared for a less structured environment, workplace
    cultural dynamics, and the expectation of autonomous work,' he explained.

Jesus, both those sites set my CPU ablaze!!!!
 

I like the part where employers are expected to train the graduates of
overpriced colleges to do something useful. I wasn't impressed when I
interviewed recent graduates of UM but I thought it was a local problem.
UM isn't where you go for STEM education; that would be MSU in Bozeman.

Heaven forbid that colleges do not generate good capitlist workers!  :-D

Send your kids to the local JUCO! Or a job-specific trade school!

I got heavily trained in physics and hearing science... And ended up a
programmer. :-D
