How community college has change my life
I was moved to tear by the essay "How Community College Has Changed My Life" of Dale Hill. The author has a strong heart and mind. He had sacrificed a lot for his family. He went to work to help support his family while other people in his age went to college. After dropping out from school for twenty years and already having his own family, he started to go back to college with many difficulties causing for concern such as commitment of time and money. Also, being too older than regular student makes he feels not confident that he could fit and compete in academic world. The community college is the key to open all windows toward to education and from education to bright future. Because it gives him a change, I think that community college will give me a change too. His seed is growth, so I am going to plant my seed. The essay about Dale's experiences in life and education teaches me to believe in college education, brave and confident, and hard work. These three aspects nourish my dream and help me to follow my goals in life.
The author's message in this essay is that college education is offered to all of us regardless how we are and when we start. The college education is always there waiting for us. "What followed was twenty wasted and fruitless years of unfulfilling factory and retail jobs." The author wastes twenty years to realize what his future would be without any skills or college education, did he return to his dream. Community college offers a very less expensive fee than that of university for the same or equivalent courses. What an opportunity. I will finish my lower division of the major which I pursue with a much cheaper fee which I am able to pay. Without community college, my educational goals is likely impossible to be archived due to expensiveness of education in university.
The author proofs that college education is not only for the rich but also for the one who is "rich" in mind and spirit. Going to a university is always not an easy choice for anybody. It would require a commitment a lot of time and money. In order to archive my educational goals, I would be stay in schools for the next eight years, and I have to pay about two hundred thousand dollar-the average cost of a student at a medical school. It is not easy like I am writing it on this paper. It is a long and rough process to be admitted into a medical school. I have to have a GPA above 3.7 and a high score in Dental Admission Test. Moreover, I have to be good in English which is also what makes me worry the most. I don't know if I am able to archive my goal or not. There were many times I wanted to give up. After I read Dale's essay and compared me with Dale Hill, I am in a better place than him. I am young and single such that I just has to take care myself while Dale has to fulfill responsibilities of a husband and a father of one son. I admired him because he was very brave when he chose to resume his educational dream after interrupted it for twenty years. He left the old attitude and beliefs behind which he was taught that college was only for rich people. Also, it is even harder for him because he probably forget everything in school after twenty years. I am wakened by his bravery, and his story helped me to be confident on my educational plan. I believe I could achieve it someday.
Dale resumed his educational plan and had done it very well. His award in Paul Simon Student Essay Contest is an evident for his hard work in school. Although facing multiple difficulties in life, Dale Hill could even do better than most average students. As a household of a family, Dale was expected to take care of his child and work to pay for expenses of the family. Although he is divided to many places home, workplace, and school, he still fulfills his responsibilities in every parts of his life. I admire him for his hard working. He is a hard worker, a hard working student, and a responsible father. His excellences make me embarrassing about my laziness. While Dale is busy to do work and study at the same time, I am lazy doing profitless things in my computer such as playing games and watching pornal moives. I would love to be as good as him in English. Dale's story is a good lesson for me that I should work harder in order to pursue my goals.
In conclusion, Dale Hill's essay is just one page long, but it contains many valuable lessons for readers. Especially to me, I have learned three lessons from him: believing in that community college is the economic choice for the equivalent education, being brave to make a decision and being confident with my choice, trying best to archive my goals and to break through any obstacles in life.
