I tend to read and not post, however, a very interesting article. The notion that colleges themselves (admissions/administration) will not accept the training and schooling as credit is only half of the issue. The ignoring of experiences, in my time as a student, also occurs in the classroom, as professors discourage veterans from sharing their experiences, particularly in government and military history courses. Not being a veteran myself, I was often intrigued to possibly hear what they had to contribute, however, I suppose that is what happens when you attend a liberal school just outside of DC.
