Can Two Be Greater Than Four? Does college really matter? Has college lost its rite to passage appeal? Can one still go to college and be successful in the pursuit of self-discovery? These are the types of questions that Liz Addison challenges in her short essay “Two Years Are Better Than Four”. By taking into account my own experience as a current community college student and advocate, in this response to Addison’s essay I choose to elaborate on her views of community college being better than

9/27 Two body Paragraphs Thesis: Two-year college is the best post-secondary education option because of its accessibility, less expensive, and more intimate, regardless of the lack of the “college” experience. Two-year colleges are the best post-secondary option because it is more accessible to the average person. Two-year colleges are much closer to people than many universities, reducing the issue of travel. For many the issue of distance can stray people away from universities. Two-year
to college with no financial support is difficult; therefore, I agree with the government in making two years of college free for all students. Although many students attend college, most can’t afford the cost of obtaining the degree. The students who make it through college are left with the progressive debt they’ve built, due to student loans; therefore, the government granting students two years of free college will, in turn, decrease the amount of debt accumulated by students from student loans
The two thousand year inscription on the Pantheon M. AGRIPPA L.F.COS.TERIUM FECIT translated to “Marcus Agrippa the son of Lucius three times council, built this.” Is Marcus Agrippa associated with the Pantheon? This inscription for much time was of considerable uncertainty to the Pantheons origins. Ongoing debates to the why, and by whom the Pantheon was built, continue, mostly because their descriptions are not written in ancient literature. To add to its mystery its difference in architecture
The Franks: Hidden For Two Years For writing this essay, I was sparked by my continuous interest for the Holocaust and how the Frank family got through these terrible experiences. When I was in the 4th grade, we researched who was a part of the hiding and did projects on the whole story and I instantly wanted to know more. It interested me how a normal group of people could be this courageous and daring during a time where everything is collapsing in their lives. My goal for this essay is to inform
Two Years is better Than Four in a Nutshell Fired up Liz Addison similar to a flash of lighting responses to Rick Perlstein’s “What’s the Matter with College” (which is about how colleges have change from then to now) in her own publication “Two Years are better than Four” (More of a rant that American colleges are not dying or doesn’t matter that it doesn’t exist anymore because community college is Americas secret gem). Addison aiming with the precision to shoot down Pearlstein’s opinions one
The shark siren had already gone off two times that morning, and the salt water sat heavy in the back of my throat. After being in the ocean for almost five hours that day I was ready to strip myself of my wet suit, and in all honestly order myself a juicy burger and a cold beer. As I walked into the basement of Gary’s Surf school, where I was currently working in South Africa, Gary called out “Hey Kait! One more! A walk- in lesson at 3:30, Are you Keen?!” It was Christmas eve, and everyone was busy
great time. In the early morning, we received a call from our mom telling us that our grandpa died. I was really devastated, just like my brother was because we have never suffered a loss of a really close member of our family. We were all so scared. Two hours later, we had to go to his funeral and then to the cemetery. I appreciated my grandpa so much and I really miss him. As a conclusion, there are four seasons and I agree summer is the best of all the seasons. Summer is the warmest of all four

Is study abroad worth the cost? It may be expensive, but it is an experience that can open many doors. It offers different career possibilities that without studying abroad would be harder or impossible to get. Not studying abroad lowers a person’s chances of success in the ever-globalizing world. It is difficult to ignore that studying abroad comes at a very high price. But it is a price that can be measured both by money and by experience. The economic price, the price of the transportation, room
Every student, after he or she graduates from high school will have the choice of attending to a University or a two year Community College. I remember Lee, my friend Joe’s brother, asking me after I finished high school and whether or not I wanted to join to a University or a two year Community College. At the time, it took me a week to answer his question. Similarly, if I was to ask any student where he or she wants to go after they finish high school, one might find that they’ll receive different
on a pedestal. Whether it is because of its prosperity, freedom, or government, the U.S. has remained an example to the world. Some think that creating a law demanding two years of public service from each citizen will enhance the view of the U.S. and help its citizens. Unfortunately, doing so will only hurt it. Requiring two years of public service not only disregards individual freedom, it also doubts the civic virtues of citizens. The Founding Fathers formed the U.S. Constitution based off of the

In her essay, she is responding to Rick Perlstein's article “What’s the Matter with College?” in which he claims, “College as America used to understand it is coming to an end” (211).
