Should College Education Be Free or with Minimal Cost?

Part 1. Introduction

I propose that College Education should be subsidized by the government due to its positive impact on the community, its ability to achieve equality and to increase specialization of work. This topic is important to be discussed because I am currently a college student and this concern to many students in all universities around the world. Lack of state’s significant subsidies of college education represents a standing block in the face of students whether they are currently enrolled or not.

Part 2. Argument outline

I. I believe that college education should be subsidized by the government because its positive impact on the community, its ability to achieve equality and to increase specialization of work

II. Rather than concentrating on their studies and dedicating their time and effort to study, college students, who can not afford pay the fees of their college, have to work part time or get some loans to be able to pay the fees, papers, books and all requirements of their education. This might deviate them from their long-life target of achieving excellence at their college and specialize in their desired field of work. Moreover, the problem may be exacerbated when many students feel that they are not able to meet their financial requirements and they might end up leaving their college education. This problem is not only affecting those who leave their college education, but rather it is also negatively influencing states and governments since too many students are deprived of their opportunity to resume their education. As a result, the community itself is deprived from having more educated and productive workforce. Apart from that, many students who are not able to satisfy their financial requirements may feel inequality and this may develop anti-social attitude because they are deprived of their lifelong dream.

a. It could be argued that college education has a positive impact on the individuals and the communities as well. This is because when subsidizing college education, this means more educated and productive workforce. Additionally, subsidizing college education shall ensure high levels of innovation and productivity growth since states that have higher percentages of college education graduates are recognized for having higher levels of innovation and productivity growth.

b. It may also be argued that college education achieves equality between people as it ensures equality of opportunity and motivates students to learn as they shall only concentrate on their studies.

c. It is argued that college education increases specialization of work as college graduates specialize in high tech and value added products and services. Moreover, it ensures higher need for skilled graduates.

III. Opposing Viewpoints

a. However, there are some people who argue that making college education free shall give rise to opportunity cost. In other words, if we spend billions on free college education, there is an opportunity cost of higher taxes or less spending elsewhere.

b. Furthermore, they argue that, it shall represent greater pressure on quality of education since there will increasing numbers of students at college.

Part 3. Justification

Everyone should care about this topic because the economic benefits of college education is much bigger than the costs of pressures since many students will have their equal opportunity of access to the college and this ensures more talented and more graduated students with optimistic outlook to the future.
