    To a student in an era of globalization, economic recession, and strong job competition, it can appear as if a college degree is the ultimate solution to one’s problems. However, finding the right post-highschool path is often like shopping for clothes: One choice rarely fits all people. College can often cost more than the degree pursued is worth. College also isn’t the only way one can get a good job outside of high school. Furthermore, college is not for everyone. Not all students should go to college.…

    “It’s just extremely disappointing and aggravating to have paid all that money and have nothing to show for it other than debt.” proclaimed Michelle Polyakov, an English graduate from Drake University. Polyakov obviously feels that college is not worth the cost and that all someone has to show for the education is debt. College has been deemed, by some, that it is not worth the cost because of the financial loss, the future job security, and the need for “blue collar” jobs. Finances, job security, and the need for manual laborers are all major factors in the debate of college and its cost. The reason being is because not all people are meant to go to college, or their situation just isn’t ideal. College is a privilege, and not every job requires you to have a higher form of learning, but most do. By viewing the debt of a student after graduation, the job security of graduates, and the need for manual laborers, one can infer that college is not worth the cost.…

    When an average high schooler walks into senior year, the students are quickly bombarded by school counselors discussing which four year college they should apply too. At my high school, it was never second guessed whether the student would be attending college but was assumed. Most people have misconceptions that if they do not get a degree, they will unable to obtain a job and have an overall unsuccessful life. In Charles Murray’s, “Are Too Many People Going to College” and Freeman Hrabowski’s “College Prepares People for Life”, the two author both discuss the education system we have in place, however, Charles Murray provides a more convincing argument that college, contrary to popular belief, is just not for everyone.…

    The Gallop poll studies the link between student debt and long term challenges a college graduate faces. The poll shows that those with more student debt tend to have more difficulties in four out of five categories of well-being. The four categories of well-being include community, physical, purpose and financial. This topic is important to society today because it is now becoming harder to afford a full college education so students are turning to student loans which can be a burden for a lifetime. Student loans are great for those who are interested in pursuing their education with little to no money to afford school. On the competitive real world side of things, the career market is demanding that potential workers have some sort of degree, preferably a bachelors. Because of this new demand, people have the desire and the need to further their education in order to make a decent income in today’s economy.…

    Peering into an 8:00 am class full of freshman college students, many observations can be made. There are students with their heads down, (obviously still listening to the professor) students with their pencils racing, students with their minds wondering, and students with their attention to the teacher. As one might note, not all students have their mind focused on what they paid for. Some people go through college as a party or just because it’s become one of societies “norms”; others have a set goal in mind. However, if used to its best ability, college allows one to gain an advantage over high school diploma holders, by attaining the knowledge, skillsets, and tools to achieve or explore their career goals.…

    Many college students enter their respective schools with an idea that college attendance is the key to a successful career. Students enter college, oftentimes in their teenage years, choose a major that corresponds with their interests, and look forward to joining the gainfully employed post-graduation, sometimes only to discover that the promise of a bright future was not a promise at all, but merely a possibility. A college degree grants you the possibility and the opportunity to make yourself successful. Success in the workplace ultimately begins and ends with three specific characteristics; first, you must choose the right career doing sustainable work that matters, secondly, you must be willing and able to exhibit the determination and tenacity which…

    Caroline Bird’s essay “College is a Waste of Time and Money” explains her beliefs on why, for some people, going to college is an ineffective and inefficient use of their time. She states that many students do not belong in college because they are there for the wrong reasons and they are not happy learning. She also gives evidence to suggest that going to college and getting a degree does not actually allows a person to make more money in their life time. Her final claim is that college does not prepare most students for the real world and the jobs they will have once they graduate.…

    With the cost of tuition so high, many high school graduates are not able to continue on to higher education because of their financial standing. This forces many students to look closely at the benefits and disadvantages of college. The advantages of college include, but are not limited to; communication and writing, leadership, analytical, and social skills. They achieve communication, writing and analytical skills because college makes students problem solve and in order to pass classes, students must learn how to communicate what they are thinking in a proper manner. However, students also obtain social and leadership skills through meeting new people from different cultures and socializing with their peers. These advantages take real life application when the graduate goes to interviews and have to communicate with their future employer. Even though these advantages are amazing to bring to an interview, college also provides other opportunities such as internships which leads to individuals with college degrees having lower unemployment rates. “The employment rate for young adults with some college was higher than the rate for those who had completed high school (63.7 percent), which was, in turn, higher than the employment rate for those young adults who had not finished high school (46.6…

    Rebecca Mead’s article “Learning by Degrees” focuses on the statistical logic behind finding a career, and the advice of economists to skip college. This article discusses the advantage education provides for college students by expanding and exposing their minds. Mead also references the argument over the education in high school, which prepares all students for college, instead of the work force. Reading this article, as a college student myself, I began to think what benefits higher education brings. Although college itself does not guarantee us a position in our field of study once we graduate, it does increase our opportunity to earn a higher income job. There are careers in which a higher education is not needed (i.e. customer service),…

    The purpose of the self-administered raking scale of completely satisfied to not at all satisfied, is to evaluate and determine the experiences and the level of satisfaction of college graduates and their ability to find employment after graduation. This survey assesses various levels of satisfaction in eight areas of employment satisfaction, education satisfaction, and career choice satisfaction. This survey is a simple yet functional model allowing college students to voice their level of satisfaction in regard to how satisfied he or she is with their overall college education and the ability to find employment in the career they chose to pursue while earning their college education. By assessing the satisfaction level of college graduates with the workforce, it allows future and current college students to understand the probability of finding employment in various fields. For instance, if a majority of college graduates taking the survey earned their Bachelors degree in Psychology exhibited a high score of dissatisfaction with their career and education choices, this would allow future students who had considered majoring in Psychology to…
