Why is there no push for higher education in the youth of the United States? I am a senior and I am always hearing storyies about kid not making it in college. Is it becaues the teachers are not preaing there students for college like they should or is it that kids are just lazy? I read this artical about What makes kids drop out of college by Elizabeth Gehrman writter for the Harvard Gazette. In it she had taked with university officacl Melissa Roderick and Bridget Terry Long an associate professor of education and economics at the Graduate School of Education (HGSE). In the artical it taked that most kids are just not ready. Either cause of he enviroment or the wrok load. There was a study done in Chicago on what percent of kids that graduate high school gradaute college. The resukts blew my mind. "Of the 80 percent of freshmen who walk into Chicago public schools and hope to complete a four-year degree," Roderick continued, "we would expect that about 6.5 percent, unless something changes dramatically, will be able to attain that degree by their mid-20s." Either students need to go to some sort of prep school to get them more ready for the college enviorment or teachers need to make kids work harder. I personal belive that most kids can not do the work unless they are pushed by a pearent they simply can not stay on track they have to much time. Teachers are preaing kids the best they can for college if the student wants to learn.

Immigration in the United States is a pressing issue that has and is still effecting our nations ecomny today. Our country has always been effected by immigration. Our culture is what it is due to the way immigrants from different countries have shaped it. Over all immigration helps our nation s economy. They take the low wage jobs that the americans wont take. they also creat more jobs like Chines nail salons. This genarates alot of money for our economy. But on the other hand illeage immigration is bad. Border patrol agent in Arizona said "what if another 9/11 happens,and it happens on my watch? What if the bastardas come across here in Arizona and I don't them because I'm so busy chasing your next busboy or my next gardener that I don't have time to do my real job- catching terrorists?" That is a valid point and something should be done about that. It is fine if you come here legally. But What?
