I’m glad to given a topic, such as why people attend college or university, which I’ve thought about before. People do things for reasons, even like their patents told so, it get cute ladies there, or they can do their own hair cut which is not allowed in Chinese high school.
Sorry, let’s get this seriously. First of all, students can gain knowledge from the campus, which maybe the most important reason is. College or university is just the soil of knowledge. Professors with experience both in teaching and research will be very helpful for students. For many, this will be their best chance which they cannot have in their career lives for a long and quiet time for studying.
Secondly, it can be called experience. Before their studying in college, students’ lives may mostly be arranged by their parents. They need skills as preparation for future physical lives, they need learn how to cooperate with other people appropriately, and they need to learn to deal with things as a grow-up man. It’s the first time they face the world along. It’s all about their whole life which actually belongs to themselves can start, completely, from the colleges that all need experience.
After of all, career preparation is becoming more and more important to young people. Some how, this is the primary reason to go to college. They all know that job market is not only competitive but also complicated. We cannot denial that a degree of college make companies reasonable more glorious then make your salary higher. More skills, more opportunity, things we learned in college lead us more prepared for the further.
Maybe Some one would argue that Gates don’t need a college. My explanation is college is not perfect, but it’s good enough to most people, that’s why people attend it. |
