last week: are too many people going to college?
According to some research i was reading about in my reading class...we read a lot answers to this question. Are too many people going to college? I personally do not even know how many people go to college but i would assume it is a lot. I think if everyone in college is there for a reason and know what they want to do, then there is no problem with how many people are going to college. Some students go to college not knowing what they want to do at all. I think this is a waste of money because in a lot of cases, some students end up changing their minds about what they to do and end up wasting their money and time on classes they do not even need. I think if students do not know exactly what they want to do when they get out of high school, it would not be a bad idea to wait to go to college until you decide what you want to do with your time and money there. Also in this research, people said that college is not meant for all students. I agree with this. Some students do not need college if what they want to do does not invole college. For example like the army or if they want to do soemthing with television or a family buisness. Some students do not even have enough money to go college. I do not think this is a reason to stop anybody from going to college. I personally think college is way too expensive and the government could help out a little more with helping pay for college. But if it is a hard time paying, then starting off in a commuinty college is not a bad idea at all. Starting it off even if you are quite not sure with what you want to do then a community college would still be the best idea even if you do not want to wait to go to college. i just think people need to be smart about what they want and do not waste their money or time.
