Wyoming High School Ditches Harvard, Builds Hunters Instead
At Upton High, Wyoming, where the buffalo roam and college hype fades, 2025 grads picked career paths like an indie Netflix lineup: 9 to four-year colleges, 2 to community colleges, 3 jumped into trade schools (previously a zero), 4 hit the workforce, 1 signed up for the military. Sam Johnson, who’d rather wield a hunting license than a diploma, got an apprenticeship with a hunting guide because his counselor wouldn’t stop nagging until someone said yes. While Peter Thiel tosses $200K at kids skipping classrooms, Trump’s admin wishes plumbers outsell LGBTQ Harvard majors. Meanwhile, 63% still chase college for the paycheck, and Upton’s subtly sliding AP classes in so no one’s left out in the Wyoming cold.
