That's what college is in education and work terms, something to have to get yourself some better opportunities in employment. And if you're worried about finance and choices, then there are agencies that can give you a helping hand. So yes, fill up those forms. Anyway, thanks for sharing that!

Even if you don't necessarily have a career path in mind, getting a two-year degree in a useful subject will prove to future employers that you can stick to something and get it done. Of course, I wouldn't want to drown in debt, but I think it's certainly worth a look at scholarships and other conduits. So, overall, I believe that college affords both opportunity and invaluable experience, both in the now and later down the road; but I'm also perfectly fine with those that do not need it for their career and choose not to go. It should be an individual decision.<br /><br />I love your outfit, especially that jacket :)Maryhttp://theabsentmindedseamstress.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7923224972595501331.post-68456447727385026552015-01-04T16:09:20.845-08:002015-01-04T16:09:20.845-08:00Very cute outfit!

I've seen too many people just "go to go" (or worse, to meet a spouse). <br />I think it's also important to be realistic (I.E not getting a degree in some obscure field where they could never get a job). Anyway, my two cents!<br />Natasha<br />A modest fashion blog: www.natashaatkerson.blogspot.comNatasha Atkersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01593504944388481931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7923224972595501331.post-15034900085407671442015-01-04T15:27:33.552-08:002015-01-04T15:27:33.552-08:00That outfit is beautiful, Paige! I LOVE the leathe...That outfit is beautiful, Paige! I LOVE the leather jacket...and to answer your thought provoking question, I think college is a good choice for most (if not all) people. In this day 'n age, you need college to get a stable job with a stable income. Even though my wish for the future is to be a stay-at-home-mom and wife, I am already thinking about college! (And I am only a sophomore in high school...) I have an eye on this Christian university in my area, and Lord willing, I hope to go there (and also Lord-willing, get a good scholarship!) But, having said this, in my opinion, guys should absolutely have a degree. As providers of the families, men should at least have some foundation of education to at least have a chance at a good job. This is something I will definitely think about more now that you mentioned it. ;) Thank you, Paige!

As a homebody who ended up going way far out of state to college, I also really appreciate the range of opportunities and interaction with people of diverse backgrounds and ideas that college has offered. Though part of me would have preferred to stick with my parents at home and attend a local community college or online program, I think going outside of my box for a time will ultimately be more beneficial. I'm a big believer in the value of being able to accept people for who they are, regardless of whether they see eye to eye with me on lifestyles and beliefs, and I think going off to college for a few years is a good way to widen your worldview.<br /><br />Even if you intend to get married and be a stay-at-home mom after college, I think college can still be beneficial. There's the whole expanded-worldview thing I mentioned above, plus the actual college education is good. If you love learning/what you're studying, the academic atmosphere will be challenging and exciting. It's FUN. And the knowledge you gain will be passed down to your future kids, whether through direct teaching or less obvious means. If you're really worried about your course of study being relevant to your life plans (assuming the stay-at-home homeschooling mom thing here), major in something like early childhood ed, nursing, or religion that can have ready applications in your home life.<br /><br />And another thing: college leaves your options open. For ease I'll just use my own example. I'm going to college with the intention of having a career of some sort working in museums or similar organizations. I also want to get married and have a large family. The two are not mutually exclusive; museum jobs can be flexible and low-key, or part-time, and I don't want a high-profile career anyway. But I'd also be happy as a stay-at-home mom, if that's how it turns out, but at this point I don't know how exactly my life will play out. I could never meet the right guy and get married, in which case I'll be able to support myself with a job I also find fulfilling. Or I could end up with a dozen kids, in which case I'll put my education to use in educating them.<br /><br />One last thing is to also not fear going to a public university rather than an institution with a specific religious bent. Wherever you go, you'll be able to find like-minded people and avoid mixing with the wrong crowd. Some public schools are different than others - the state flagship I attend is waaaay more conservative than some other public unis my friends attend - but all will have religious organizations and active churches nearby. I've found it very easy to avoid engaging much with people who spend their college time drinking and partying, instead finding friends whose views more closely match my own. College has been a great experience for me, even going halfway across the country (due to available scholarships and programs), and I wouldn't give it up for anything.<br /><br />Hope this helps.

Lord willing, we want to be homemakers and wives someday, and we didn't want the debt college usually brings. Because along with that debt, if we would get married, that would force us to stay in that career to make enough money to keep paying off student loans. The little Bible school we're headed off to now is a wonderful price, and we'll get to hang out with like minded young people learning about God's word! Plus, our dad initiated it, and as a family, we've decided to do this.<br /> A Really helpful book we read was "Chucking College" which gives great perspective on college, and college alternatives.
