It may be a case of young adult laziness, but is it really? It seems as if students are becoming more and more pressured to attend a four year university than ever, promoting those who do on such a level that those who don’t feel remarkably inferior.

What are your ideas for college readiness reform?” My group was in agreement that college readiness is an issue. While almost all of my group members agreed that there is a problem of college…

continues to ignore the importance of knowledge. As humans, we take things for granted, therefore, we refuse to see consequences of our actions. A college education should be mandatory to protect the future of our hospital, court, and waste systems so that they don’t dwindle down to the level of stupidity in the idiocracy film.

For the past ten years I have been so fortunate as to receive a Catholic education. I believe it has shaped me to be the person I am , and I would not be where I am without it. Many others have not had the opportunity to go through a Catholic education like me and a truly wish they could share in this wonderful experience too. By going to Catholic school you are not just learning the basic subjects, you have the privilege to learn about your faith too. Our Lady of Hope not only taught me the…
