There have been many sayings in regard to persons who are considered fools because they did not believe a certain way or accept a certain thing. It is certainly a very foolish person who turns away the once-in-a-life- time opportunity of college. College is wonderful. The effects which higher education has on one's life are unending and unlimited according to the individual. Admittedly, there are times when we stop filled with discouragement and say, But is it worth all this work? Yes, it is. It definitely is. College so broadens one's viewpoint that he finds his life overflowing with a bounteous supply of values he never dreamed possible -more than economical values-spiritual, cultural, physical, and intel- lectual. A person's life is enriched over and over with the help of his acquired skills in college.
