Ask me About my Weiner!!!!!

     Is college good enough ? Thats not for anyone but you answer.Many Students  jump to this question without asking other important questions like," what do you want from college ?"You cant answer one without the  other which is a situation many high school graduates do to a more than lack luster results.As this info graphic I read recently read said that 50% on college students don't graduate and 30% drop out before there second year scary right, that happened to me I was more interested in skirt chasing and drinking and I didn't need a class for that.At that time I was thinking "No college isn't good or good enough for me."When I asked myself What did i really want from college, that when it all makes since.But then you have pick the right School which I believe is gotten harder.
     This movie called Accepted where they delve into similar discussions like this, a character made this comment, "People forget the most important thing,( is) that college is a service industry","as in 'serve us ' as opposed the other way around," I thought was really right on the money, because school philosophy has change to "do what we say and get out!"So your college choice is important so that you can get the  college experience that you want.This is just a movie but Liz Coleman President of Bennigton College believes the same  as she calls that we should narrow our our educational classes to a more a balance of a socialized education but keeping our interested relevant ,this concept seems to be new or innovative when it should be the norm. These are concepts that need to be addressed back in high school when we should be thinking about What we want to be after school? or what do what from school?,What do we want from our experience in school?
     So is college good enough? You really have to wait till its over to answer that.If you asked yourself all the question honestly answered  them and  got what you wanted ,had the experience you wanted  and then got the result you wanted after your few years of study, then typicaly you would say "yes"college is good enough.

  1. The title is interesting I would like to know what was the point of the title but it caught my eye. Its kind of short and I think you can develop it more but I like what you have so far
