    • 2 Pages

    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.

As a result‚ you hear from a lot of people that believe

    College Uneducation (shania) I wish to speak on “College Uneducation.” Is it possible that our college educationmay “uneducate” rather than educate? I answer “Yes.” It is a paradox but nonetheless the truth—the grim‚ unmerciful truth. We all believe in higher education; else we should not be in the University. 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
