Countless students ask debate obtaining a college education because of the staggering prices. Is going into debt over a piece of paper, known as a diploma really worth it? College education is worth the cost depending on the major selected, work ethic of student, and understanding the many advantages a college degree can provide compared to a high school diploma. There are various degrees to major in during college; some are good investments while others are…

INTRODUCTION) Going to college is worth the expense because there are better paying jobs. Many college graduates who do finish college end up with a higher paying job rather than people who do not. Individuals without a high school diploma or even with a high school diploma earn less money rather than people who have a Bachelor’s or Doctoral degree. Even people who have their Associates degree earn more income that is weekly. He says, “To worldly wealth, education adds richness” (Smith). Most…

Nursing is a profession I have always looked upon with a lot of respect. From a very early age I have really loved the idea of working with people, assisting them and working as part of a team. My wish to take this course in University in Adult Nursing was established after my first work placement at a care home where I was working with people who had a lot of different learning disabilities, the people who I worked with were all different ages from young to old. During my time at the care home,…

Introduction: Take a second to consider what is more helpful to Canada and its citizens: Canada spending tax revenues paid by Canadian citizens on the first two years of post secondary education, or spending tens of billions of dollars on a war machine that is not even useful to us. That’s right, the Canadian government is planning on using up to $50 billion of tax money earned by the citizens on new war machines, even though there is currently no threat to Canada, the last being over two…

fix poverty and how it’s caused. To me, the leading cause of poverty is the lack of education. By the lack of education, I mean, people in poverty might not have finished high school at all or all they have is a high school diploma. For example, having only a high school diploma makes it much harder to get a job than it would if they had a Bachelor's degree. The lack of education isn’t the only problem, but to me it’s the largest. One solution I have is trying to get more churches to hand out…

In this convergence poster there are several things that make up who I am, On the poster there is a picture of me and four rainbow trout that I caught when I was seventh grade. Me and my grandpa went down to roaring river along the Missouri and Arkansas border. It was a weekend early October and we decided it would be nice to get out of town and go do what we love to do, we mostly fish for crappie and sunfish, but we thought it would be interesting to try and fish for trout and with roaring…

As college bound AP students, most of us are strongly considering college. But is our consideration a smart one? Is college really worth it? First and foremost, it is important to define what makes something “worth it.” Is it the financial benefits? Is it the life improvements it brings? Or both? In order to…

Henry David Thoreau, an American philospher and naturalist once stated that "The price of anything is the amount of time you exchange for it." I have to say that I agree with Thoreau's statement and I have proof to show you why. Let's take the work enviroment for example. If you have a job where you get paid by the hour, you can get paid for doing overtime. Depending on how much extra time you put in, the cost measures. The measures of the cost can be determined by how much you get on your…

not forget the fact that you are on the road of beginning your new life. Being able to study something you are passionate about is a feeling that makes you want to push through because it’ll all be worth it in the end when you receive your college diploma. One of the three things that have impacted me throughout this year was the decision to change my major from special education to sociology. It no longer feels like a hassle to go to class. The second impact is that…
