Why College Students Drop Out?

College is a Scam

Outliers are extraordinary individuals who didn’t need college to be successful in the first place. In the past it was an honor to go to college, and only the wealthy families were able to send their kids. There is a saying by one of our most famous president William Jefferson aka Bill Clinton “When we make college more affordable we make the american dream achievable” (Clinton). Most of the american kids are not cut out for college.

College students drop out of school because the classes are too hard, students are too lazy, and do not go to class, or there partying too much and not enough studying. Look, college is hard enough for those that are motivated. According to Ivory Tower Arizona State University, the number one party school in the United States has 76,000 students enroll in ASU per year. Which means there are around 240 students in a lecture hall while there are only 40% facility on campus.

When you go to a big college with 240 students in a class you are just a number to the professor because he is not going to try to remember your name or try to help you pass the class. He is just there to teach and get paid. In college students study less than 5 hours a week and that is less than an hour a day. In a semester class students write less than 20 pages of notes. Since, students are not motivated in studying for school that causes the students to fail tests which leads to failing the class which leads to lowing there GPA and also the college GPA and that leads to students dropping out of college. The Ivory Tower states in 4 years 68% of college students drop out. Every University that has a lecture hall during the first week of orientation the professor says to the students look to you left and look to your right because only one of you are going to be here in the end the rest are going to drop out of the class or even drop out of college. Students are not motivated in learning the material are they want are blow off classes so they can pass the class with little or no effort that they got to put in. Attending college is not necessarily the mind expanding endeavor everyone makes it out to be. It is assumed college graduates will be better critical thinkers and problem solvers, but those benefits do not automatically
