Interview:
http://onpoint.wbur.org/2013/02/14/vocational-training

Jobs and education got a lot of attention in the President’s State of the Union address the other night.  Education, starting pre-K.  Jobs and education planted right in high school.

This hour, On Point:  high schools, educating to a job.  Plus we’ll look at the President’s “College Scorecard,” sizing up your “bang for the buck” in higher ed.
