the case against college

On October 20th we read an article called "The case against college" and it it states that college destroys creativity because you are required to do things a certain way and take test and so on. In the article the guy also states that a way kids can learn is through technology. I agree with this but not alot of kids are going to be willing to look online and learn new things. Many kinds today are to concerned with their facebooks and checking their wall post. Kids will not learn anything unless they are in school. Being in school is a for sure way of kids to learn new things and to do well at them. I personally wouldn't want to go to school but its the only way i can go about learning new things. If i didn't have to go to school i know i wouldn't be just looking stuff up online and trying to learn new things. i would honestly be out with my friends having a good time, playing baseball, or sleeping. School is a great thing and kids should still go. one thing that the article brings up that was quite scary was how much in debt the average college kid would be after 4 years in college. That amount of money is ridiculous. Most people will be working until their forty just to pay off their college loans. Yeah the author makes a good point about how expensive college is but you really need that degree in order to get a good job. A couple years back i had two friends one who went to college and the other who didn't. They both applied for the same position at sports authority as a manager. The one who got the degree was the one with the college degree because he went through years of hard work through college in order to be a manager whereas the other guy did absolutely nothing and expected a job as a manager. This goes to show you that people these days are looking for a college diploma.
