Picking a location to attend college
At some point, finding the right college or trade school will be on one‘s
agenda. Oftentimes their location is the deciding factor and our ‘browsable’
directories of western states colleges are the quickest way to see the schools
within a given area… and with just links to their websites lets them tell their own
story. It's a simple approach. While often ditched by the latest technology,
simplicity doesn’t throw functionality out with the bath water.
Help for counseling, admissions, scholarships and student loans
While there are many questions one faces in choosing a career, from its
stability to the financial rewards, high schools and colleges can make available
counselors to help you decide. Of course, in order to achieve your goals, it’s
also about finding the right college, getting admitted and paying for it all.
If you need additional help the following links may prove helpful:
- Alloy Education (offers searches for
scholarships, colleges, student loans, career schools and provides career
assessments)

assistance)

Fateful college decisions
Since decisions are always fateful, of an everlasting impact both
professionally and personally, the need for due diligence is stressed as the
rewards are often relative to one’s researching efforts. Right decisions
shouldn’t rely on luck. A flexible curriculum should also be considered allowing
one to re-focus later if a better idea arises. After all, born of the
imagination goals evolve… seldom resembling the targets of yesteryear.
Thoughts on education
With an agrarian society having been tossed aside as an ideal, one of true
independence and self-sufficiency at the household level, of a closeness to
nature, to family, getting a good ‘bourgeois’ education is more important today
than ever before. In the process however one’s spiritual side should not be
forgotten. While it’s the tendency, often being intellectually incompatible, it
is the other half of ‘success‘. Whether better or worse, it is
the reality we’ve been dealt… the first minted coin made it inevitable.
"Society everywhere is in conspiracy against the manhood of
every one of its members. Society is a joint-stock company, in which the members
agree, for the better securing of his bread to each shareholder, to surrender
the liberty and culture of the eater. The virtue in most request is conformity.
Self-reliance is its aversion. It loves not realities and creators, but names
and customs." --- Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882)
"Among all the evidences for the existence of an overruling
Providence that I can discover, I see none more convincing than the elaborate
and, for the most part, effectual provision that has been made for the
suppression of genius. The more I see of the world, the more necessary I see it
to be, that by far the greater part of what is written or done should be of so
fleeting a character as to take itself away quickly. That is the advantage in
the fact that so much of our literature is journalism.
Schools and colleges are not intended to foster genius and to bring it out.
Genius is a nuisance, and it is the duty of schools and colleges to abate it by
setting genius-traps in its way. They are as the artificial obstructions in a
hurdle race, tests of skill and endurance, but in themselves useless. Still, so
necessary is it that genius and originality should be abated that, did not
academies exist, we should have had to invent them." --- Samuel Butler
(1835-1902)
