"One Challenge"
The "One Challenge" that I, as well as my friends, is going to face within the next four years is the rising college tuition fees. This is an economical injustice because how could we possibly look towards a successful future as a country without educated individuals take control? The generation that we live in constantly puts emphasis on how important it is for high school graduates to attend college but yet college tuition is so expensive that it is almost impossible for students to enroll in college. Expensive college tuition discourages students to even attempt to enroll in college because they feel that they will not be able to afford to pay for their courses. In order to make college more affordable for students, I think that more grants and scholarships should be available to them. Also, instead of taking away from a student's financial aid award if they have a job, I think that students who have a job should be able to receive a financial aid award that can pay off their tuition and still be able to work at the same time. This would enable them to afford to pay for their college courses as well as support themselves financially.
