I believe that a college education is important and a good

thing. There are many reasons people go to school, and there

are some reasons why others may feel like so isn't so

much important or needed. I believe one of the main reasons

school is good is because it'll help you in the future,

job wise. Most jobs now a days require you to have some type

of schooling or certificates. Also, your pay will most likely

be better. You'll actually have a set career, which is

also a guaranteed legit job.

Another reason people might go to school is because they

believe that they can better themselves and actually learn

more about things that may interest them. Maybe, taking

classes can help them in their real life and pass things they

learn onto others around them. Another reason people might

spend thousands and thousands of dollars and years on school

is because they might just actually enjoy learning more, which

most times that's not the case. I feel like all the time

and money you put out for school will help you in the long

run. Nobody wants to be working at a fast food or retail store

for their whole life, so getting a good education can help you

avoid situations like that.

Some people might have a doubt or believe that education

isn't all that important because there are good paying

jobs that don't require school. For instance, back when

my parents started working as paralegals, they didn't

need any schooling. Later on some classes and training were

required but its not like how it is now when you need an

associates degree or higher. So I can see why some people may

feel like school isn't really something seriously needed.
