Topic : People attend college or university for many different reasons. Why do you think people attend college or university? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
Every body knows that college and university play an important role in society. They enable students to get more specific informations than those acquired from elementary or middle schools. If people do not attend college the knowledge they learned when they were young will be futile and they must be skeptical with the fact that they wasted their time for studying which was not their destination. So it is much better to go college than no going. College and university provides societies with human resources that is crucial power of development. I think people attend college or university to learn more detailed knowledges about the subject they are interested in. Also some people go university to get their career and sustain their lives.
First, people attend college in order to learn about what they really like. This kind of people usually know what is the true meaning of studying; learning things to solve their curiosity, not to earn money. College and university are different from elementary and middle school in terms of how profound the contents of subject are. For example, a friend of mine has a sister who went college and chose to take the psychology class because she used to wonder how human's emotions are created. She has tried to look for informations about this, searching Internet, looking for books and asking to experts through web sites. However, she couldn't find any information that will remove her curiosity. Therefore, she attended the school this year and got a lot of informations. She feels happy while learning what she really like.
Second, there are people who go university to get the certification of college graduation which make it possible for them to have job and earn money. Nowadays, more and more people tend to attend university for this reason. It is no desirable attitude towards education whose real purpose is just purely learning and developing one's ability. If this state continues, the real purpose of education will be distorted to the only way to live wealthy and be respected by others. The cause of this phenomenon is many companies' demanding of academic degree. It is understandable that companies need intelligent employees, but this can led to the social tendency of regarding university as the key to be recognized by others. Instead of only evaluating a person with the universities where they have graduated, company have to employ a person who has creativity and responsibility.
In conclusion, people go college for development of their own knowledge and delight or for a better job, treatment, reputation of more convenient life, However, the inclination to think university is the only for good life makes the world the most evil and cruel place rather than peaceful and compatible place. We have to change wrong notion of university for the better world
