Why go to universi11

Why go to university?
People attend college or university for career advancement and for
strict personal reasons.
These are my specific reasons basing on how I look at this.
First of all, people advance their career and pursue their goals to be able to get
promoted, to elevate their position, get more pay, and self-fulfillment. Those
were basically for personal reasons. Now, there`s this so called career
advancement where people just want new experiences, sharpen their skills
and broaden their horizon.
For instance, I am an immigrant here in the USA. I was a professional
licensed teacher and librarian in the Philippines. I have an extreme love for
my profession and want to continue here in the USA to boost my self-worth
and at the same time maximize my potentials as a professional. I came to
realize that I have to start from scratch where it takes me to a lot of hard
work, perseverance and self-sacrifice involved just to be able to enter into the
US professional world. Suffice it to say that there`s also money involved
during the process. It`s quite a whole new different thing in order to survive,
to acclimatize and to keep me going to my new adopted country.
I can also say that part of my motivations to attend college or university is to
better my future. Financial matter is also another reason. I have dreamed that
all the time --- being financially stable to enjoy the fruits of their labor and
live my life to the fullest. Not that I am not stable financially, but my point is
to get myself established.
To sum it up, it all boils down to people`s personal motivations, perspective,
convictions, and satisfaction.
