Education has always been a gateway to success. Young students are taught that if they work hard, get good grades and attend college, they will be rewarded with a good-paying job, a comfortable lifestyle, and a bright future. However, this dream has proven to be elusive for many as the cost of education continues to skyrocket while job opportunities remain scarce.
Education has become a commodity that is being sold to students at a premium price. Society has placed an unrealistic expectation on young students to obtain a degree in a field that is in demand, costing them thousands of money in student loans. The burden of paying back these loans becomes too great, and many are left struggling to make ends meet, unable to purchase homes, and start families.
We need to stop selling the dream of a college education and start preparing students for the reality of the workforce. It’s time to provide vocational training, apprenticeships, and internships that lead to great exposure and provide real opportunities for a successful life.
Moreover, education should not be a profit-driven industry. It is important to make higher education more accessible and affordable for everyone. Education should not be a privilege reserved for the wealthy, but rather an essential tool for everyone to build a better life.
