Anyone who is able should study at a College or University because it develops them as a person in ways that they might not have imagined. A person who enjoys life should also enjoy learning, because that is how things in life stay fresh.

Many people reject the idea that attending a college or university will benefit them more than real-life experiences. I used to agree until enrolling at CCC and realizing that there IS a world of information and experience to be had that I could never have received had continued without getting myself a formal education.

Today, in the US, middle-income jobs that require little training (factory work, retail, etc.) are moving out of the country which leaves only minimum-wage service positions (McDonald's drive-through, stock-persons, cleaning crews) available to those who have not attained secondary education documentation. It is becoming increasingly more competative for higher-level positions and a college education has become a must if one expects to win one of these valued placements.
