AP correspondent Naeun Kim reports on the arrest of a 21-year-old former student after a stabbing attack at a school in eastern China.
While traditional high schools, colleges, and universities offer the necessary prerequisites for academic and intellectual fields, their offerings and curricula are often generic.On the other hand, the vocational school can stand out from the crowd of choices because you can provide specific examples of what you offer and what your students can and should expect when they attend your school.For more information or help with your school website, contact School Webmasters at 888.750.4556 or visit www.SchoolWebmasters.com and request a quote!
There is a longstanding, widely held belief that the best chance at a better future is to go off to college – especially for people from marginalized communities.Whether it was your teacher, general political rhetoric, or one of many sitcoms that reflect middle class American life, the message was to go to school or risk failure — dismissing millions of people who decided not to go to college and created viable, sustainable careers in trade professions, from manufacturing and welding to plumbing and software engineering.And now, as college costs continue to rise and more people want to develop a sense of financial stability, education and careers in the trades through vocational schools are becoming not only more accepted, but also encouraged across all factors of society. In our latest episode, host Kai Wright talks to Maya Bhattacharjee-Marcantonio, co-founder of The Marcy Lab School in Brooklyn, New York, and Eric Kelderman, a senior writer at the Chronicle of Higher Education about the shifting cultural cachet around earning a 4-year college degree. We talk about what motivates some students to pursue vocational education, what this change might mean long-term for Americans across demographics, and why some still prefer a professional path that includes college.Support of WNYC's coverage of economic mobility and opportunity is provided in part by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.

A former Lissycasey councillor has been remembered as "both an honest man and a great politician". Long-serving member of Clare County Council and founding member of Lissycasey GAA Club PJ Kelly has been laid to rest in Lissycasey Cemetery this afternoon following his passing over the weekend. Public servant, family man, educator, performer, fluent Irish speaker, ardent GAA supporter and lover of all things equestrian and automotive - these are just some of the ways the congregation at PJ Kelly's funeral mass this afternoon were told he'll be remembered. Hundreds packed into Our Lady of the Wayside Church in Lissycasey this afternoon to pay their respects to the former Cathaoirleach of Clare County Council, including politicians past and present and Tanáiste Micheál Martin's Aide De Camp, Captain Essie O'Connell. Over the course of the service officiated by PJ's brother Father Artie Kelly, those in attendance were regaled with stories of the retired councillor's wit, intelligence, work ethic and his umistakeable qualities of "kindness and contentment". Born in 1940, PJ attended national school in Lissycasey before progressing to the CBS in Ennis and later received a scholarship to attend St. Patrick's Teacher Training College in Drumcondra. His first teaching post was at Lisheen National School and he also did a spell at Clondrinagh National School prior to pursuing a Higher Diploma in Education at University College Galway which led him to secure a position at St. Michael's Vocational School in Kilmihil where he taught for close to 20 years. Father Artie told mourners that in a long life in which he achieved a great deal, his love for and dedication to his native parish of Lissycasey never faltered. A number of gifts were presented as part of the procession including a statuette of a horse's head bestowed on him last year to mark his 50 years of service on Clare County Council, as well as an original Lisheen GAA Club jersey and a hurley to symbolise his passion for GAA. PJ was first elected to Clare County Council in 1974 and his contribution to his community, the congregation was told, could be felt everywhere, from the stained glass windows of the church, the commissioning of which he played a part in, to the crest of Lissycasey GAA Club which he helped to design as well as its motto "dílis dá chéile" meaning "loyalty to each other", to the 132 streetlights dotted along a four-kilometre stretch of the N68 known locally as "PJ Kelly's highway". In a wide-ranging and heartfelt eulogy, PJ's son Barry John said while his father was a man of many gifts, public service was his greatest strength of all. Ever the family man, it was only fitting that a contribution through the medium of song was made by PJ's granddaughter Laura. Mourners were also told of PJ's penchant for water divination, with Barry John referencing Mayor of Clare Alan O'Callaghan's quip that in a hypothetical match between Clare and Cork's county councillors, there'd be no need to bring water to Croke Park as PJ would find it there. To acknowledge this facet of the man, PJ's daughter Alma concluded the mass with a recitation of Seamus Heaney's poem 'The Diviner' before a guard of honour saw him off on his final journey. PJ is survived by his wife Maura, children, Aoife, Alma and Barry John, brothers and sisters Seamus, Fr. Artie, Tadhg, Loretta and Angela, sons in law Cormac and David, daughter in law Úna, grandchildren Laura, Bryan, Ódhran, Eva, Iarla, Saibh and Róise, brothers in law, sisters in law, nieces, nephews and a large circle of friends.
In 2008, Australian entrepreneurs Annabelle Chauncy and David Everett founded School for Life. The mission statement tells it all, really: “To educate poverty out of existence.” The co-founders met in Kenya where they were working as volunteers, and they saw in real time how education changes lives for the better, for individuals and their communities. They returned to Australia determined to build a school in rural Uganda. In partnership with Rotary, they raised over a half-million Australian dollars, and in 2011, Katuuso Primary and Vocational School opened its doors for the first time. Since that day, Annabelle and her team have continued helping developing communities transform, making these communities more successful and sustainable by making education more accessible. In this fascinating conversation, host Charlie Bresler and Annabelle Chauncy muse over a wide range of topics, including the importance of education, how families and communities influence the adults we become, how parents — and parenting — impact our lives and perspectives, and how we can stay positive and motivated in the face of overwhelming obstacles. Learn more about Annabelle and The School for Life on their website, www.schoolforlife.org.au. You can donate there or at The Life You Can Save (www.thelifeyoucansave.org).

The recruiting season is always open in the trucking and transportation industry! Recently, Truck Country and Stoops training programs welcomed newcomers to their diesel tech training classes with cool events at their facilities. The programs welcomed new "recruits" by hosting Apprentice Signing Day events, where newcomers to the three-year program were invited to ink their contracts in a similar style to how often college athletes sign their letters of intent.

Josh Jorgenson fills in as guest host, but you'll find our usual host, Ray Clark, on the other side of the microphone.

James Mauler was still early in his career when he decided to leave college and take a more hands-on approach with his education. Instead of completing a five-year degree in architecture, Jim realized that he could achieve his professional and financial goals by putting his drafting skills to work on the job. As an example, when computer-aided design (CAD) software was still in its infancy, he was the first person in his firm to volunteer to learn how to use it. This made him a go-to resource in the company, and it gave him the confidence he needed to know that he was on the right track.In the early 1990s, Jim was terminated from the company that he was working for at the time. He describes this as a blessing in disguise because it gave him a compelling reason to start his own company the very next day. Jim has been at the helm of Cadnetics for nearly 30 years, and his business has undergone tremendous growth and transformation during that time. The firm, which is headquartered in Pittsburgh, also has a presence in four other major markets throughout the country. Jim is currently realizing his vision of expanding to 10 cities in 10 years, and you can tell from our conversation that he is having a lot of fun in the process.If you have any questions or if you'd like to chat, you can reach me at my contact info below. The purpose of this podcast is to share ideas, inspire action, and build a stronger small business community here in Pittsburgh.
