I picked up that mentality while being involved with the family farm as a young child.
The elementary and secondary systems came of age when the vast majority of the population also had significant involvement in agriculture. One would imagine that kind of thinking would be pushed at those early school levels, long before one reaches the typical post-secondary age, but you are suggesting that is not the case. It may have been assumed that one would already pick that up at home given the circumstances of the time and we haven't looked back since?
Has college become the replacement for agrarian exposure in our modern urbanized society?
