McCrory wants to defund educational course tracks that do not put butts in seats of jobs … citing such things as gender studies, and philosophy … how many brewers positions are there in NC … enough to warrant this program?

There are over 65 breweries in NC and counting. With Sierra Nevada, Oskar Blues and New Belgium settling into the area, there will be more breweries. So yeah, AB Tech is on the right track.
