It would make life so much easier if we didn't have to worry how we're going to pay for college.... I think more people would go to college if it was free...
Right now I'm in my small business college and I have to pay $350 a credit

I payed for my first month of college...but then I couldn't anymore.. I had to take out a $15,000 loan and it looks like I'll have to take out a little bit more loan money to pay for my last quarter...

So why can't college be free?? Or at least way cheaper than it is??

Because there are too many people that only care about money and nothing else. Plus they need $ to help pay for the schools constructions, athletic programs, and other crap that it has, such as dorm matinence. But that would be so awesome and maybe actually be for the world, with more highly educated people instead a bunch of hicks.

Problem is that we already have too many educated people. Degrees are already completely undermined. Look on Monster.com and you'll see that virtually every job already requires a undergraduate degree. They aren't worth what they were. My company requires that receptionists have a first degree. WTF? No offence to receptionists, but it's hardly rocket science.

The more wide-spread degrees get, the more dissatisfied people will become. To work 3 or 4 years for a degree, and then find that all the good jobs are already taken and you barely qualify for a burger flipping job? Man, that sucks.

The world needs uneducated people to work the s***ty, but essential, jobs. A hard truth, but truth none the less. Sucks that the "uneducated" end up correlating with the "underfunded", but that's the world in which we live.

Thats Crazy! the only way we get in free is through a Academic or Sports Scholarship. My neihgbor got a Volleyball Scholarship that paid for the full thing. Im lookin for a Footbal (Soccer in the U.K.) Scholarship, but i'll probably wind up goin for academics.

America: College = University = 18-22

UK College = last 2 years of American high-school (sorta) = 16-18.

UK College is free, but UK university really isn't. Unless you count loans as "free".

This might seem to be a stupid question in your perspective, but do a lot of schools in England require uniforms? I just noticed in a lot of pics and stuff of English Universtiys and Colleges, the students all wear uniforms, which i can imagine would suck.

That is an easy question to answer, simply because the government is corrupt with greedy little savage green-eyed monsters... They morph from their origional human state to little creatures somewhat resembling gremlins. NOT THE CUTE GREMLINS... the ones you get wet or feed after midnight..
