1) Billitteri, Thomas J. "The Value of a College Education." CQ Researcher. SAGE, 20 Nov. 2009. Web. 10 Oct. 2016.
2) Question: Is higher education really necessary to achieve ones goals, or is it all just propaganda?
This source includes both sides of my question and even has some in-the-middle suggestions. For example, it tells us how everyone is different and everyone has a different way of learning at different rates. The author has done his research and even includes stats in his article. One of the suggestions he proposed is that any teenager should try either community colleges or universities out for at least a year, This can give anyone an idea of what it is like and if they decide it is not for them then they can make that decision then. This article also argues that going to school doesn't necessarily mean that you are going to have financial security. There are a lot of people that have financial security who either dropped out of college, or never even attended.
I feel like this source has more information than my last one because this one includes stats and even has a pro/con view on it. This article includes every detail and backs it up with stats for each detail, therefore making it more credible. This article strengthens my opinion on my question. It has more details that help me back up my opinion. It puts my thoughts into words, and it is a lot of help.
Looking into the opposing side on the con section gives me perspective on that side. There are a lot of valid points and views that higher education is necessary for financial security and to achieve ones goals. Both sides have very valid points and views but my view still hasn't changed on the subject.
Now, I think this is the source I will be using. I might change my question slightly, and i still think it is a little broad, but maybe I can find a way to specify it more,
