  Why is college important?


"Going to college would mean very much to me. My parents worked very hard to give me a life that was better than theirs. Because of this, I feel obligated to pay them back by working hard in school to become successful. I plan to have a good future, a life that is better than the one my parents had. This is why going to college and staying in college is very important to me."
      - J. Porter, What College Means to Me 

 

"With college come many lessons to learn.  During the time I am in college, I plan to enjoy my freedom as an independent person.  I think college will prepare me for life as an adult.  It will prove to me that the only person I should depend on is me.  College will show me responsibility and time management.  One necessity of life is the ability to manage your time.  In the real world, you will have to attend certain meetings or functions that may cost you your job if you are not on time.  College shows you responsibility by giving you tasks that need to be done.  If they are not done, you may flunkout!"
