America has come a long way in its education system. It is easier now, more than ever, for people of any race or gender to get an education. However, it is arguable that the educational system does not do its job to prepare students to become successful young adults. There are many flaws in the order of education, which causes students to worry more about satisfying others with test scores and academics rather than actually preparing them for the real world. While the educational system does prepare students for the academic stress of college, it does not qualify students to become young, successful adults and survive in the real world. Most of these students pass through too many years during their high school lives feeling like they don’t measure up, and most kids graduate only knowing if they’re good at school or not. The educational system is flawed and it does not prepare students to become successful adults.

Positive externality can be defined as this occurs when the consumption or production of a good causes a benefit to a third party an example can be education when people go in college because they want to get an education, probably so they can get good jobs, live happy lives, etc. But them getting an education does not just benefit them, it benefits society as well. Some may go on to invent handy products, or come up with important ideas, which everyone else will gain from. So even people that are not paying for your education will get some positive benefit from it, The Negative externality example can be pollution: Pollution is the classic negative externality. If I own a coal mining company, my excavation of coal has costs that I have to pay. But it also results in costs for everyone else, despite the fact that they aren’t producing coal. The rest of society has to deal with the added pollution resulting from my production. In this case we will looking at the positive externality which is created by education and see if university education can be subsidized by taxpayers because of this externality.
Marketing is “an organisational function and a set pf processes for creating, communicating and delivering value to customers and for managing customer relationships in ways that benefit the organisation and its stakeholders” (Reid and Bojanic, 2009, p. 9).
