Depends on what you're thinking of majoring in and your life. For me, it's a good choice because I can start out at 75k and possibly move up in the world or I can take an easier approach and teach.

Trade school might have been easier/ better 20 years ago for me but I can't do the heavy duty work like I used to. Hard to argue with $60 an hour for an HVAC job though.

My uncle actually went to trade school while in high school in the late 1970s (he graduated in 1979 I think) and he told me back then when you reached your junior year of high school, you had an option of attending regular school for half the day and then attend a trade school for the rest of the day. He did that and learned auto mechanics and he now owns 4 repair shops and he says his biggest gripe now is no one is being trained to repair the newest cars that are all computerized so he has a hard time finding skilled mechanics/auto techs.
