What are some reasons why everybody should go to college?

Question

I am required to write a speech on why everybody should go to college, so I need some reasons! Thanx!

Answer 1

First - no child left behind.
1. When others are going to college, and you just start working, you may regret being left behind for the rest of your life.
2. When college graduates where you work are being promoted, and you were left behind, you may regret not going to college.
3. College life makes you think, you have to study more and compete more.
4. College life gives you some peers that open your eyes to the outside world, especially if they are foreign exchange students.
5. College life gives you the opportunity to excel and study what you want. Youu can't do that in high school, very much at all.
6. College life gives you a taste of what your career choice might be.
7. This opens doors when you think of graduate school, law school, or medical careers. It's not possible without first trying college.
8. College gives you identity with a time in your life, when you may be "floundering around", and it gives you momentum to go onward.
9. College makes you think. Sure you think in a job, as the boss tells you what you're allowed to do.
10. College is also a time to have fun, date and expand your ability to laugh at yourself.

11. Most of all college gives you an opportunity to develop, your thoughts, prayers - you'll need for all those tests, and your ability to get along with others, and some of those friends may last a lifetime.
I don't know of too many people who keep high school friends for a lifetime.
12. Some college friends may provide worthwhile contacts later in the business world, as they progress, as they remember you if you need a job or a reference.
13. College is a dream - and in American, a dream come true regardless of the cost. Many foreigners don't have that opportunity if the child is poor. You can still work your way through college in America.
I know I worked my way through high school, college, graduate school, and CPA school!

GOD bless all of us, and our wishes for the future.

Answer 2

Sorry. There are NO reasons why EVERYBODY should go to college.

Some folk succeed beyond your wildest dreams without ever having set foot on a college campus. Others become quite successful in following manual and semi-skilled trades that customarily never require a college degree.

Others still enjoy a life of self content and happiness even though they have been relegated to ditch digging.

The world NEEDS good ditch diggers, laborers and the servers to all of our society.

Argue this position instead following the assigned subject. No matter the grade, you will be better for stating an honest opinion.
