I commend NBC’s Today show for this excellent video. Correspondent Craig Melvin showcases young people in Massachusetts who have opted against four-year college study in favor of pursuing skilled work in CNC machining. This story does a great job of illustrating the technology, knowledge and sophistication of modern manufacturing and machining, and the teens in this story are excellent representatives and role models.
