Forrey said it's unlikely the off-the-street trainees are at
any significant competitive disadvantage against their college-trained
classmates.

I wonder how true that is. It's been my experience that a college degree
shows you can be taught. On the other hand, I have seen some pretty bright
people who never attended college. I would predict a higher wash-out rate
among those without the education.
