Despite the fact that most people encourage everyone to continue their education after high school, some people believe that getting a higher education isn't necessary. While I respect a different opinion from my own, I want to inform them why school should be important to us all.


1. You are more prepared for life

If you get college degree, you will have more job opportunities because you are more knowledgeable. When employers look at candidates to hire, they focus on your college education.

2. Without school, we would not have doctors, engineers, employers, schools, and pretty much everything that we have

This point explains itself. Who would take care of you if we had no doctors? Who would hire you if we have no employers? Who would educate your kids if we didn’t have teachers in our schools? Education is what solves all our problems and what makes everything easy for us. Someone has to do these jobs and it's imperative that they are educated enough to do them.

3. You can reach your career goals through school

Continuing your education gives you the chance to reach your goals and to get hired at the place you desire. School helps you reach your goals in life and helps you become a successful person, both financially and personally.

4. You’ll be financially more satisfied

You can make much more money with a college degree and you will have a better chance to get the job of your dreams with higher pay. The more education you have, the more money you will make. Money is not everything, but when you are financially stable, you are not likely to face hard situations in life such as paying bills or acquiring any debt.

5. You will have a better life style

If you want a job and can’t get it, most of the time it's because you don’t have a degree for that job. When you get that degree, you can get the job you have been dreaming of.

6. Education also builds self confidence

In college, you are exposed to a variety of topics and situations you can get involved in. This helps you overcome many of the fears that you may have and as a result, you can become more confident and knowledgeable.

7. You will work at the job you actually want and enjoy

Obviously, you study what you like. This means you will get a job you worked so hard for and once you get that job, it won’t feel like you’re going to work because it will be something you wanted your whole life. The hardest situation is having to work at a job where you feel you have to work and it isn’t what you really want, so continuing your education by getting a college degree will help you get your dream job.


So, education is the key. Continuing school will be nothing but beneficial to you. Through education, you will have many opportunities waiting for you and you will have a set life. The prime favor you can do for yourself is giving yourself the opportunities to be the best version of yourself and education will definitely help you reach this goal.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
