Re: the “hard” stems, maybe? They have a clearer function as a certificate pipeline, but in terms of prep I find it difficult to quantify. There’s also limited positions at the end of this pipeline (medicines a killer example, academia, research). Are we creating better candidates or more positions with stem programs? Or just more candidates who 1) don’t find positions or 2) don’t end up with relevant skills for the roles they take.

(Incidentally, I think CS is a very good place to invest, precisely because there’s a lot of demand, start up cost for self employment is low, and applicability is super broad)
