I personally don’t believe that college should be free. Making it free would only serve to limit the value of the education while filling colleges with students that have no business/need there.

At the same time‚ college education—like all other human devices for human betterment—may build or destroy‚ lead‚ or mislead. My ten years’ humble service in the University of the Philippines

I was really excited to go on college by the time I step on the stage and got my diploma. During college applications‚ I would always think of what college has to offer far from high school.
