To be honest, when I see opinions like the one above, my first thought is to dismiss as too unrealistic and unfeasible. But maybe that's because I am from a place where college is like the coveted destination that teachers/principals want students to reach. The parents are on-board too because most have jobs that involve cleaning, cooking, or physical labor.

Do you think that maybe there's a social/intellectual advantage to college that the author is not taking into account?
