A Response to "Who Really Wants Tuition Increase?"

I completely agree with this editorial because many of my friends and I find it very hard to pay for college. It's not fun to think about how long you might be in debt because of taking out loans for school or thinking about having to apply for financial aid. It's as if the nation is a hypocrite itself by wanting everyone to succeed in life and to better the world. But at the same time making it very difficult to pay for school by raising tuition any chance they get. If anything, raising tuition discourages people to even think about going to college.

There are plenty of people out there that believe starting a full time job right out of high school is the way to go. This is because they think it's not worth it to go to college and have to spend a lot of money and be in debt for years. Hopefully tuition increases don't discourage too many people and that many still strive to become what they have always dreamed of becoming.

Personally I don't want to be stuck in a dead end low paying job for the rest of my life.This article had good commentary and you could tell that the writer was very passionate on the issue. That made the article more enjoyable and easier to read.
