I worked every year in college and graduated with less than $10,000 in debt.? The biggest problem I had was bad advising in Community College - I should have been in engineering from the beginning but had no advisors asking me about what I liked doing.
I survived and have been working in the field for forty five years now.

Marvin,
I couldn't afford to limp. When I started college I was 16 and became an emancipated minor. I was able to get into the college's work-study program, though, and that was a real blessing. I worked in the college's computer lab (at minimum wage), so I had relevant work experience when I graduated. I never went back home to mom. The biggest hassle was learning to drive and then finding a car when I first started.
Ibn Europe students don't study worthless subjects - and if they don't do well their first year they are out.? No limping along - though I limped through seven years at UC Davis and finally succeeded.

Why not? Public education should be free and there are a lot of public colleges and universities. This approach seems to work quite well in Europe. There's really no need to force the underprivileged to have to struggle while other students don't have to.

3.? Should the government offer free college to all students?
