College graduates earn more, and are more likely to have a job in the first place and is especially important for some americans. When a student graduates from high school only 65% of them go to college which they will have a better, and more successful life after college. Referred from the article saying that in “2010 the median weekly earnings for someone with some college but no degree were $712, compared to $1038 for a college graduate” this means that when they graduate college and find a job they will earn more money because of what classes they took. Also college is a way to create and lead them to different roads in life. “college as the primary goal of our education system in favor of multiple pathways for students.” College gives students opportunities to have a successful life and good jobs which all lead to happiness.

schools, and to jobs paying hundreds of thousands, if not millions, a year. Colleges can help students who just graduated from a university find a good job that pays off well. Colleges could have classes that they need specifically for that one job they try to strive for. “America clings to to the conceit that four years of college are necessary for everyone, and looks down it’s nose at people who don’t have college degrees.” Four years of college is very necessary because it doesn’t just make them get a degree and do well in life but if they take the right classes college can also make them a better person.
A four year college degree isn’t necessary for many of tomorrow’s good jobs.
Many famous people got jobs that didn’t need a college degree or some of them dropped out. A few people that dropped out of college is Steve Jobs (founder of apple), Michael Dell (founder of Dell) both left college at the age of 19. Bill Gates (founder of Microsoft), Mark Zuckerberg (founder of facebook) both left college at the age of 20. Each and every one of them all dropped out of college but had a very successful life in their companies they made. Like I said college isn’t for every person, but if you ask me I would recommend going to college because high school graduates can get more life choices and more likely to be successful, and not including Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, etc. because they were lucky enough to make a lot of money by dropping out of
college.
As a result I really think college is very much worth going to especially when college graduates is going to do something helpful to them, family, and friends to make their life good and successful. No matter how hard it could be later on college will come in handy and help raise people's pays, better health care, job security, more family time, and have a better future for them. So I am asking you one thing, as soon as graduate high school i would highly recommend to go to college get a degree from there and plan out a good life because one day when you find a job college will your best friend for getting it.
