Should higher education be available to all?
The issue of who should attend college appears to be a
controversial one. Some people believe that it should be available to
good students only, for it would provide the society with excellent
specialists, raise the prestige of universities and be beneficial to the
students themselves. However, after careful thought, I am inclined
to support those, who think that high education must be available to
everyone, who chooses to have it.
First, the system of determining whether a student is capable or not
is not perfect. Many outstanding scientists, like Einstein, were
doing extremely bad at school. It is also not uncommon that a
smart teenager is neglecting the studies because of the
physiological problems of the age.
Second, the practice of selecting the students on the basis of the
school grades only, would lead to a huge discrimination of many
young people, and would deprive them a chance to improve their
lives and pursue the careers they are interested in. I believe, it is
absolutely out of the question in the modern society.
Finally, if the universities and colleges were highly selective, they
would sooner or latter
end up being corrupted, because it is a fate of any closed and
prestigious institution.
To conclude, I want to note that although the arguments of ?higheducation-for-good- students-only?supporters sound very
reasonable, I am convinced that the higher education must be
available to all, who want to get it.
