I could see this hit public universities

We've had plenty of talks on here about the fees, nickel and diming that come with college. I wonder if we could have some programs like this at the hickory branch. It could be a boon for us.

Read that article earlier today as well. Definitely Interesting. The day of the liberal arts process of finding yourself and what you want to do for your future have definitely changed. Many kids are having to declare for their major prior to entering as a freshman. Even more are already coming with credits in hand from dual enrollment at the high school level. Something like this could certainly have value. I don't claim to be an expert, just a Dad with a senior in high school learning the game. College definitely shouldn't cost what it does.
