What do you believe is the purpose of a college education? -In my opinion, the purpose of a college education is to get a degree that can help you to get a job after college. I came to college because I want to be an accountant and I need to be taught how to properly do this kind of work before I can go out into the world and do it as a career. What does it mean to be educated? -To be educated means that you have knowledge. It doesn't matter on what subject or how much knowledge you have, as long as you have knowledge on some subject, you can be considered educated. I feel this way because in order to be educated you have to learn something. People learn new things every day and are all educated on these things; as long as the information they obtain is fact. What experiences have you had with education that led you to this belief? -As I said, people learn new things every single day. Every day is an experience that can be used to answer this question because being educated isn't necessarily just about going to school and "getting an education" but learning facts about some subject.
