Reich's Why College isn't ( and shouldn't be for Everyone probably had to be my favorite one because I just felt so passionate about the topic and was so intrigued about everything he had to say.

I didn’t really find any of the topics new but I did find a perspective I relate closely to. In Chungs essay where she says that family and friends are supposed to be your safe place, I related to this phrase and it has stuck with me because there are times when my family can be extremely ignorant on topics despite them being a minority themselves and most times they refuse to educate themselves on the topic, which tends to be the most frustrating.

Why College Isn't (and Shouldn't Be) for Everyone

I agree that college is not for everyone and that it shouldn't be seen as a make or break for your career. Just because you don't have a college degree doesn't mean you're not educated or you shouldn't get a certain job.

Mike Rose, Blue Collar Brilliance: I thought that this essay was a very good reminder that the people working these blue collar jobs don't always have it easier than people working "harder" jobs. However, at the same time, this essay also reminded me that going to school is an easier path; not at first, but in the long run.
