Benefits of Having a College Degree
When we consider going to college, there are many things that can convince us to go but also many things convincing us not to go to college. Sometimes when we are thinking about going to college we don’t think about the benefits we can receive from a degree. We tend to focus on the negative things that can come from going to college.

Five Assigned Reading Books You Shouldn't Skip
No one likes assigned reading; it’s okay to admit it. A lot of the time they are boring and drone on and on and on. Each page is a chore! However, my rebellious "I'm not going to read this and you can't make me" stage in school meant that I missed out on some really great literary works, just because I thought they were boring and unrelatable at the time.
