Yes Mike Rowe interview do make me stop and think what I’m doing at Blinn College but then when I come back to reality I stop and think and it come back to me why I’m at this college, and that is because I can’t do the work I use to do but I still must move forward, what stood out to me in Mike Rowe interview was when he said how Mr. Dunlap pointed at the boy with the cap and gown on and the other guy in the poster with the greasie mechanic suit own with the greasie ranch in his hand I thought that the was kind of bias, because people have they own mind sat on what they want to do with their life, yes I do believe Mike Rowe made some very valid points and I do believe that they were very logic for the topic of his interview, I like how he talked about how they are lending money to students and the money that the students don’t even have from the beginning, he speaks about how they are training students for jobs and careers that they may not work when they graduate from college and that’s true because when I work at Halliburton Energy in Caldwell Texas in 2011 and before we started out in the field of the oilfield industry, we went to Corpus Christi Texas for a 7 day orientation and there was students from the University Of Texas in Austin that couldn’t find a job for the degree they major in, so Halliburton Energy hired them own and train them to be survey engineers.

   Mike Rowe also talk about that there is a trillion dollars in debt on the student loan side, but he brought up a great topic about the guy in Butler that drive heavy equipment for a living and he makes a hundred bucks and hour and this guy works when he wants and he owe no debt, but people don’t tell his side of the story, and I must say people are building their dream  homes making 1200 dollars a week driving big rigs are working in the oil and gas industry, and he talked about work ethic scholarships and what they are, and they are willing to learn use full skills and to work hard, last but not least he talks about he went to college, and then he went to work, went back to school and got a degree and I think that is awesome that he went through the struggle just like we are going through now, and his first real education was with reality TV  mostly in the sewer.
