The compare of attending college

    Should we go to college or not? This argument is becoming bigger and bigger recently. In article “I Don’t Want My Children to Go to College” and “Why Go to College at All?”, they both argue whether college is worth it. These two articles use a lot of researches and statements to support their opinions. 
    Even they both think that attending college is not necessary, but they do have some difference in between. In "Why Go to College at All?”, the author points out that college is not worth at all. He thinks that college is the last place to go if you don't have any choice because the learning is not happened in college. Also he said that college is just a place to learn how to follow a direction and rule. 
    But in article  “I Don’t Want My Children to Go to College”, author thinks that college is not a place to just learn something, also it has lots of thing to do with. He points out that college is not necessary due to some young graduates didn't learn any useful skill on campus. Due to online course is valuable and convenient for many people, so he suggests that people should consider deeply to make sure what they want and need. Even author thinks attending college is not necessary but he admits that there is no substitute for traditional college like human interaction. That's why Buzzfeed president Jon Steinberg thinks that he still would let his children go to college if they extremely want to be scholar.
