I think it’s really neat how schools have embraced technology as a career option, and are letting students avoid a more traditional education, and instead letting students take coursework that can be truly applied in the workplace. Sure, you need to take Composition I to learn how to write a memo to your employees, but trust me - I am never going to use all of that Algebra I had to take! One such school making a big move towards tech coursework is Collins College - some of the classes they’re currently offering are animation, game design, network technology, and visual communication.
