He stesses that he’s ‘got nothing against college’ but believes it’s a huge mistake to push everyone in the same direction regardless of interest or ability. Between Mike Rowe Foundation and Profoundly Disconnected, a venture with heavy equipment manufacturer Caterpillar, Rowe is hoping both to help people find new careers and publicize what he calls ‘the diploma dilemma.'”
