Dude, give it a rest, we spend more on education (including Nevada) than we've ever spent. We don't need to spend more, we just need to teach truly relevant material including core basics. My
primary employer has a major college recruitment program for people in technical sales. If not
for UNK (Nebraska Kearney) we would have given up because schools don't teach what the market
requires. If you can't find people to produce revenue in local jobs ie Carson City, you're better
off spending the money on something like the V&T. At least it'll bring in revenue to the local
economy. The state of Nevada is an ongoing program throwing several million dollars a year at the
problem of students graduating and leaving the state, yah, let's spend more for that!!
