JackH2021:

This may be considered heresy in this forum, but many college students in soft humanities majors (think Eng Lit or anything that ends in “studies”) would have a hard time becoming an electrician, operating engineer, or CNC machine operator.

Why would it be heresy?

Just because someone is skilled in one thing does not necessarily mean that they are able to do something unrelated. A high school English teacher and electrician are not interchangeable when you need someone to teach your kid English or install an electrical panel in your house.
