No Future?

14Jan10

That is what it seems like for today’s average college student. It seems as it is becoming almost impossible for some students to continue and finish their college careers. Recent budget costs are creating this difficulty. The government is relying on the students to help relieve the economic crisis.

Due to the budget cuts public colleges and universities are denying admittance to more students, in addition to cutting class schedules in half. This is stopping students from continuing their college education, not by choice but simply because the classes needed to graduate are not available to them. For those students who are still able to to find classes necessary for graduation, they are expected to pay higher prices for their education than ever before.

Is this whole plan of budget cuts and higher college prices really going to help our economy, or is it just another way for the government to keep the “elite” within? We as a community of students need to fight to make our education possible.
