To attend college or to begin one’s career: that is a question with which confronted by high school graduates. According to a recent news report, in Chongqing City, there are many students who abandoned opportunities to further their education in college. This is the so-called the idea of uselessness of college education.
There are several factors accounting for this phenomenon. Firstly, in contemporary society, college education is a huge expense for average families. Thus, many cannot afford. What is more, the knowledge acquired in college is not so closely related to students’ future career. Finally, even completing college education, due to the severe competition in job-markets, hardly can a graduate find a satisfying job. Therefore, many individuals prefer to join in the workforce rather than attend college.
The above idea, in my opinion, is incorrect and misleading. It is knowledge that enables one to succeed in job-hunting. To solve this problem, on the one hand, government should take measures to eliminate this horrible thought. On the other hand, it is advisable for colleges to reduce the expense of education, and to impart both theoretical and practical knowledge. (188words)
