The U.S. produces a large number of workers whose skills aren’t needed.

A degree by itself is not worth what it once was. This means high schoolers planning to go to college need to start thinking more about what they intend to do after graduation so they can put their college years to good use.

A college degree is not a one-size-fits-all ticket into the middle class. It needs a plan paired with it to be of value.
