Free College Tuition From Bernie Sanders Bernie Sanders believes that college tuition isn’t in the interest for our country’s future. Bernie Sanders states “It is insane and counter-productive to the best interests of our country and our future, that hundreds of thousands of bright young people cannot afford to go to college” (Bernie). Bernie Sanders’ point is that many of the talented people in our society may not be able to pursue their dreams or pursue their desired job because they and their parents can’t afford college. If Bernie Sanders is right that many Americans can’t afford to go to college, as I think they are, then we need to reassess the popular belief that FAFSA and other scholarships will considerably lower the price for college.
In Should The Obama Generation Drop Out Charles Murray talks about the flaws found in the Obama education plan . He brings to the attention of the public the fact that many student in America graduate lacking the skills necessary for the proper college education. Murray goes on to argue that in today 's society students who graduate from High-school go on to technical college to pursue a vocational education in their field of study; whereas, older generations have pursued an all around education, enrolling in classes that were irrelevant to the career they were pursuing. Murray claims that if you test the vast majority of Americans (including himself) in the more rigorous subjects, they would most likely fail. Murray mentions that he does
In the article "Why all public higher education should be free" Bob Samuels (2012) exposed his view on reasons that regard a necessity for public colleges to be tuition free. He began his article with a comment that many people are opposed to free higher education because of the extravagant amount it would cost. Samuels explained that having free public tuition may actually save money because of the billions of dollars that the government spends on for-profit schools and universities because of low graduation rates. Samuels also exclaimed it would not only be beneficial economically for free college, but people who have higher education are happier and healthier than those who did not receive higher education. The also recommended that schools
Why is it that college is idolized even though you have to pay crazy sums of money? The assumption that college is the only way to get a good job makes it very difficult for low-income families to assist their children in finding a “better career”. Author Robert Reich believes that college isn’t for everyone and shouldn’t be idolized. While most people think that college is ideal Reich makes many claims stating that college is not for everyone and shouldn’t and backs that claim with evidence, reasoning, and stylistic language trying to explain why college shouldn't be for everyone.
President Obama 's speech to school children should go to school because it can benefit their future uses rhetorical appeals to help persuade the readers and schoolchildren. One example of a rhetorical appeal that Obama used to persuade his reader was pathos. Pathos can help persuade a claim because it can cause emotions in the reader and make them feel that they can do something about it. Obama uses is when he states that, “I’m thinking about Andoni Schultz, from Los Altos, California, who’s fought brain cancer since he was three. He’s had to endure all sorts of treatments and surgeries, one of which affected his memory, so it took him longer-hundreds of extra hours- to do his school work.
Affirmative Action Affirmative Action is a policy or program intended to redress past discrimination and promote equal opportunities in education and employment. This is a highly controversial and well known topic, especially when considering it as part of college admissions. Many argue that colleges and universities should consider a student’s race and national origin when reviewing submitted applications. This is merely an attempt to create a more diverse student body, and assure that discrimination not occur. Although there is evidence to support that Affirmative Action is beneficial to the college and its student body, it should not exists in admissions because it limits the number of qualified non-minority students admitted.
In the article, there was a letter President Obama wrote letter to the American public on the amount of standardization that is in American classroom and then the article touched on the ways that are brought up to help make standardization more realistic. He says that he believes that we are spending too much time testing in classrooms that students will not remember the tests they took but the way teachers supported the students. He suggests that tests should not be the only way we can take a look at student’s performance, but rather that we look at classroom activities and take polls of students, getting a better look at a student as a whole. One idea that was brought up was having tests at the beginning and end of the school year, this way
For those who have graduated from high school and will continue with their higher education, many if not all of these students will have to pay out of pocket for college. Most of students think that if they graduate from college or a four-year university they will have a chance to work in the professional field rather than work for minimum wage. It is an opportunity for anyone, particularly those who have low wages, to earn a degree and make more money. In the article “Expanding Community College Access” from The New York Times, President Obama states that tuition for community college should be free, because the American workforce is not educated enough for the global and national workplace. The presiding evidence and statements from experts

On September 8, 2009 in Arlington, Virginia, President Barack Obama issued a “Back to School” speech. In this speech, he outlined the importance of a student’s education and how it may reflect on their future. President Obama plans to encourage students to try their hardest in the upcoming school year by convincing them to “put their best effort into everything that they do” no matter how challenging life may get at times. Succeeding in school is not always easy due to other challenges in life, but it is definitely not impossible. Growing up, Barack was raised by a single mother who did not have loads of money to send him to school with the other American children.
