Academic programs that have a strong vocational training are one of the few worthwhile endeavors in higher education. NAU has a hospitality degree to prepare students for work in that industry and it is relatively well regarded. Fields like retailing, accounting, engineering, computer programming, supply chain management, seem to me to be worth the extremely high levels of tuition that continue to rise at rates significantly above average inflation.

Students in these fields will most certainly earn enough to repay the significant levels of college debt they acquire to obtain the training and certification. Ironically these are fields that suffered less from great inflation than college as a whole. This is not to say that they haven't been impacted by great inflation because they have but it's just to a lesser extent than the overall college average which is moving toward uniform As

I suspect part of the reason is it's relatively easy to measure the acquisition of skills in these fields against a standard.
