Although it is very baffling throughout the chapters, the plot has intrigued me into reading more of it with the unpredictable plot twists. New characters have also been introduced that keep affecting

accountability of education for all. For those in favor of the expansion of education, free college represents one of the great hopes for a better world. Even in the poorest nations, people believe and support in the funding of the expansion of universities and other higher learning opportunities are wise investments.

In many ways, some people might say that the college experience is not all that different compared to that of high school. In fact, both share a wide variety of things, but there are of course differences that they share as well.

My entire life I have lived in several places of Los Angeles; varying from Athens, near Watts, and South Central. No matter which area of Los Angeles I have lived in, I have always experienced the same thing: very little diversity, much gang violence, and very few opportunities.

Dale Stephens argues that college is not the right choice for everyone. He acknowledges that he left college because he believed that higher education is not the only way to succeed. Dale clarifies that college is expensive and cites the College Board Policy Center, which states that tuition is about 3.6 times higher today than it was 30 years ago.
