In my area, it’s apparent that there is a lack of people in skilled trades. It is a nightmare to get a plumber, electrician, stonemason, etc to work on your home and the few in the area book weeks ahead and charge well.
I also know a lot of people who did liberal arts, got a lot of personal value out of it. It’s fun to talk to someone with a deep knowledge of literature, history, art, etc.
I’ve felt for a while that being knowledgeable about art and being able to weld shouldn’t be be mutually exclusive.
Are there any initiatives to try to allow for a good liberal education with skilled trades or in demand skills? The idea that you can’t do skilled work with your hands and study humanities seems wrong imho.
