  • Analysis Of Why I Went To College

    1862 Words  | 4 Pages

    When it comes to the topic of college, Martin Espada, the author of "Why I Went to College," argues that college is a must and that if you do not attend college there will be consequences. In comparison, David Leonhardt, author of "Is College Worth it? Clearly New Data Say," also argues that college is very important to get a higher paying job than those who do not attend college. In contrast, Leonhardt also argues that college may not be the best idea considering the substantial amount of debt provided with college. My own view is more with David Leonhardt because I understand both sides of attending or not attending college with the positives and the negatives of the dilemma. This discussion is important in our society today because we constantly push the idea of college on to kids that may not even be ready for college or the fact that the debt may not be worth it; also the rise in the wage gap between college students and non-college students.

    Much of my study is spent at home, and as such I am prone to many possible interruptions, primarily from family, having four children, two of whom are under six years old, and the day-to-day problems that this obviously presents. Even as I began writing this, my five year old son needed to be taken to the doctors, which is just one example of how family life can have an effect on the time needed to study. Fortunately I have an understanding partner, whom I can delegate many of the day-to-day problems to, but I do have commitments that at certain times, e.g. Looking after my children when my partner goes work, that cannot be avoided. There are also other interruptions such as noise from my children playing, which I personally find ve...
