Week 13: Into Paragraph
A main problem that students have with University of Lafayette at Louisiana is the extensive amounts of money they have to pay. Some students have parents who can afford to pay for their tuition and other needs and wants, but many students are mostly or completely their own. With the overpriced food on campus, school supplies, parking, and tuition being paid, many people are struggling to just get by. If the pricing doesn't go down on these things, then many students will be forced to drop out of college, leaving them with no higher formal education. Also, many high school graduates will not be able to attend this college because they don't have the money for it. I think that if ULL wants to stay a great college like it has been, then they will need to lower prices in order for people to be able to pay easier and not have to be stressed or worried that they won't have enough money.

I agree with you completely on this. College is expensive enough without having to pay for all these extra things like parking and food. I think that ULL should at least find a way to lower to prices on food or student parking. I think they have the ways to make it inexpensive, like fundraisers, they just need to get the students more involved with it.
ReplyDeleteYes, I agree with lower prices, because if students do not have scholarships or grants, they are going to have an uneasy life. Having to take loans and soon will be in debt after college. Also, maybe this is part of "growing up", perhaps students will learn to build money and decision-making skills, which will help them in the long run. Either way, being stress over financial problems will definitively affect one's school work.
