Is College Worth it? YES!!!!!!!!!!!

Two interesting articles on college and if it is worth attending and for how long. I have always been an advocate for college and (so far) my children don't know there is a choice to attend. They have been told that children got from high school to college and that is it! I'm sure more will be discussed later but I think it is important for them to know how very important college is and that it isn't a 'hopeful thing' but more like a next step in school!

This is the second one. Forbes Magazine did an interesting piece on this whole question of "Is
College Worth It?"

and, a third, an article entitled, "Failing Grades"
