Craftsmen say the decision to skip college a fair trade BY VIRGINIA TERHUNE, Maryland Northeast Booster
Randy Affeld is a third-generation crane operator and long-time union member, but his children may not follow in his footsteps.
'I have a son who wants to go to college, he's not interested,' Affeld said. 'My grandfather, my uncles _ they were all operating engineers, but I think I'm the last one.'
The fact that increasing numbers of students are choosing college over construction is one reason why the Maryland Construction Trades Association held its third annual career day May 7 in White Marsh.------------------------------------------- posted 6:37 AM :: reference link ::
