Gen Z is giving up on college
  + stars: | 2023-09-05 | by ( Charlotte Lytton | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +11 min
"The world is rapidly evolving — and so is the college experience." Srivastava is one of a soaring number of Gen Zers who has decided to skip college altogether. The widening gap between the value and the cost of college has started to shift Gen Z's attitude toward higher education. They're not as interested in the typical "college experience" — whiling away four years rooming with friends and drinking at frat parties. But other members of Gen Z are taking a hard look at the "essence" of college.

This post originally appeared in the Insider Today newsletter. In today's big story, we're looking at why college isn't part of the plan for some Gen Zers. Between skyrocketing tuition costs and underwhelming salaries, some Gen Zers are skipping college altogether, writes Charlotte Lytton. A recent survey found that 40% of business leaders think recent Gen Z college grads are unprepared when they enter the workforce. The Insider Today team: Dan DeFrancesco, senior editor and anchor, in New York City.

Matt Soeth is an online safety consultant and former high school English teacher. He says you don't have to have a tech background to work in internet safety. This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Matt Soeth, a 44-year-old online safety consultant based in California, about how to create a safer internet. Much of our work in trust and safety is about managing human behavior (good and bad) and the systems and tools behind that. But, knowing how online safety works, and speaking to systems of education and programs, are both ways to get ready for interviews and find roles.
She moved away from Silicon Valley for Santa Cruz and then Sacramento. But during Covid, students leaving Santa Cruz meant we could afford to rent there again with our combined salaries, so we moved back. I once saw graffiti on a trash can down in WestCliff that said 'Silicon Valley ppl go home'. I do wonder if that's the reason it's been hard to make firm friends in Sacramento's tech community. I'm hopeful this will improve, and ultimately, the splitting up of Silicon Valley is an amazing thing.
