College Cost Comparison Myra Dimler
Why College? College is valuable to society because it can promote a better community and a better financial life for those who attend. Studies show that people who attend college are more likely to get a well paying job than those who do not. Studies also show that people who have attended college are more financially stable.
Why College? College is valuable to me because it can give me a better life, and in something I enjoy due to all of the majors available. If I get a major in something I enjoy, and get a job in that, It will be enjoyable. Not only will I be working in something I like, I will also be paid for it.
