College or not? (@willrich45)

College or No? Stuck Between Present Realities and Future Promises buff.ly/X5o9So Interesting moment. #edchat #highered

Will Richardson is someone we should send our reluctant-to-change colleagues and leaders to see-- as well as those leaders changing in the wrong directions and for the wrong reasons. Anyways, he tweeted this article recently and it struck me as a topic that deserves attention in middle schools. 

Options to the traditional college experience abound today, and the reasons are many. By building students' awareness a few years before they graduate from high school, we may be able to encourage a more thoughtful approach to high school years and life beyond.
