"College Degress More Expensive, Worth less in the job market" While reading this, I completely agreed with many things. One that really caught my attention was that "the degree alone is not the ace it once was". More and more people are going to college to get a degree now, so many that it has made more jobs competitive. Now I believe that you need more then just a degree. You need the experience and the basic factors for the job.

While reading Should more people skip college, I definitely agree that college is the right choice and that employers find them more attractive simply because they have a degree. Students are taking out more and more loans to pay for college, as college unfortunately continues to get more expensive, and its lead to me thinking whether or not sometimes however a person is better off graduating high school and finding a job to start saving money up right away. As college students are continuously studying and spending more and more money, other students who aren't going to college are already in the process of making and saving some good money. I believe that it is best to go to college to get a degree, because you have a far better chance of getting a job that is more beneficial financially down the road and possibly even a job that one may like more. I can understand where those who decide not to go to school are coming from though.

While reading Plan B: skip college, it really made consider both sides of attending college and not attending. I found it interesting that the author added that some students who have payed all of that money to go to college, could have bought a nice house instead. It's just a given now days that college is the best route, or that's what people want it to be like, but not many people look at the other point of view.
