I can respect that decision. It's his life, and ultimately not your projection of his.
Diesel mechanics are in high demand. Either way. Most people have no idea what they want to do when they graduate HS. Better do something now then waste years figuring it out at 7 grand a semester at an uni.

Btw I bet he'll make more then a recent grad with a 4 year liberal arts degree.
