Human services. Social work type stuff.

I support free access to education, but I no longer think academia is the way to go.

I did a BA at a state school and I loved it, it made me who I am, paying my loans wasn't the worst, but ten years later I'm making 30k.

I'm taking some classes at UMASS right now to upskill and they are trash compared to free programs I've attended in similar subjects. Course materials were last updated in 2010 and are full of spelling errors. Directions are missing in course activities. Professors are checked out. Why does this cost $1000+/class?

Plus an associates doesn't get you very far in a majority of majors.

I'd be way more excited about free programs that get people into trades and apprenticeships.
